"Just upload our tiny PHP installer to your server where you want the app installed, load the file in your web browser, choose an app and follow the instructions. Once you've selected an app, our installer then downloads and extracts it to your server and then forwards your browser to the setup."
"Observium is an autodiscovering PHP/MySQL based network monitoring system focused primarily on Cisco and Linux networks but includes support for a wide range of network hardware and operating systems."
This isn't quite as slick as Ninite, but at least it is something for Macs. It makes it a whole lot easier to gather those free apps you want to deploy to new Mac users. It even detects some other apps that you may have already installed.
"AD Tidy is a completely free tool that I created to help other IT Pros out. It can be used to identify when user/computer accounts last logged on to the network and can tidy up these accounts in various different ways."
"This table contains a list of systems, motherboards, storage controllers and network cards that have been tested and found to work with ESX 4.x or ESXi 4.x Installable. Please check out the source column for a system you are considering using as some systems will include special steps to enable ESX / ESXi to run on that system or have other issues to overcome. None of these systems are supported by VMWare for running ESX."
Free tools like Xirrus Wi-Fi Inspector and the Xirrus Wi-Fi Monitor Gadget for Windows 7 with links to other third-party systems/network admin tools. Very cool!
"Over the past month I have installed and tested almost every single tool on my previous blog post of A List of FREE VMware vSphere Tools." -Kendrick Coleman
"A physical server needs drivers to talk to it's hardware. A virtualized server, in essence, does the same thing. VMware presents new hardware to allow the virtual machine to talk to it's hypervisor. Think of the driver issue in a P2V migration like removing a video card and installing a new one. The drivers and hidden hardware are still there just in case you feel like popping the video card back in. A P2V will still have all of the old hardware in the virtual machine. Don't forget about services that physical servers used, namely HP server management services."
"Look no further. I've created a collaboration of, yet again, FREE TOOLS for virtual machines within your VMware environment. All of the tools in this package were pooled together for performing advanced tasks to optimize performance, reclaim lost space, and clean up your virtual machine. The goal of this project was to mount the ISO to your VM and run the scripts or tools that are packaged. Of course not all of these tools will run from a VM, but most can."
