Domain Management

[chavo]

I am looking for a utility that can install on my local machine that will tell me information along the lines of how many computers are on the domain, which version of antivirus is installed, some have Norton and others have AVG. if auto updates are on or off and other usefull information like that. Does any one know of a tool that can do this? I used to use Mcafee enterprise edition in another employment and it used to do all this kind of stuff for Mcafee. Does anyone know of any tools?

Spiceworks can do that I think.

Well if you have machines on a domain , you can enforce the windows update settings via a group policy.

There used to be a really neat freeware auditing tool called AIDA which you ran as part of a login script and it would dump a report to a file share.
