I'm trying to come up with a way to notify every computer with a message when a system has to go offline etc. So far I have only found 2 pieces of software and the old net send method. Anyone create or seen something in use that would be helpful to me?
could you do something with remote syslog? that's just the first thing that popped into my head, I'm not sure if it fits the bill! :)
We need the other direction we want to notify our end users. We already monitor all servers and networks.
Is this a network with a centralized logon system?
90% AD I was thinking about a break message but it may be to plain to get anyone to read them...
at the library we just started using a little batch file that does a net send on a time schedule to kick mofos out.
Interrupt DNS returns via mac. Send their first web visit to a ZOMG NOTICIAS DO INTERNETS page. And then add their mac to a ZOMGUCANPASS db and let them use real DNS.
Just like any captive portal.
