Gateway Server Manager
Gateway Server Manager lets you manage multiple computers on a Windows™
network from a single window, then implement commands and policies across
the network with a single action. With Gateway Server Manager, you can run
system management tasks which are triggered by certain events or conditions.
Printed documentation comes with the Gateway Server Manager CD. You can
find additional documentation in the program’s online help.
