|  Request: Software Audit tool for networks
Guys
Can anybody recommend a 'free' software audit tool that I can use on a corporate network that will list all applications installed on servers and PCs and not just MS Windows versions and applications, it does not need to cover that Mac stuff or Linux. I need it to be a non intrusive program as the LAN in question is isolated and I cannot permit it to be connected to the wild.
I have a short lead time on this request though as I have an ISO auditor coming in next week to see the results..
Your educated and useful suggestions are greatfully appreciated, mean while I will continue with a handmatic method...
Thanks
Cavey

| Microsoft also provide a free audit tool
Microsoft also provide a free audit tool that helps with Licensing etc I'm off work so can't find out anything more but you could always call them. I'll look once I'm back at work and see what I can find.
Cheers Keith.
