Does anybody by chance know of a utility that can grab info similar to what Task Manager "processes" displays and save it to a text file? We are looking for a way to take a snapshot of processes every N minutes so that we can monitor problematic machines, both servers and desktops. Ideally it would do such without interrupting the user. ________________ oop.ismad.com

I'm not up on what might be out there for windows specifically, but I know I'd use top or ps to do that in linux. To that end, y-ou might be able to install [link\|http://www.cygwin.com/\|cygwin] and write a bash script to use ps or top to do what you need and run it under cron at whatever frequency you need. -- Steve [link\|http://www.ubuntulinux.org\|Ubuntu] Edited by Steve Lowe Dec. 18, 2006, 06:17:37 PM EST Expand All History

It sounds like it might do what you want. [link\|http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/ProcessesAndThreads/PsTools.mspx\|PsTools] is a larger package including PsList. Presumably they're easy to automate with a batch file that you can run via Scheduled Tasks. I haven't used any of them myself. HTH. Cheers, Scott.
