Feature Requests

An option to download and delete a remote file would be awesome. There are a lot of files which can't be previewed and would be cool to download them from wherever I am and use the corresponding application.

Would be great if we could manage user accounts I.E Lock, Change Password, Assign Permissions/Groups etc. Also Share Monitoring is a must for me, being about to see who is logged into a share, which files they are viewing etc Also being able to log them off/disconnect... Thanks great software!

Hi Thanks for a great app i have been using it now for almost 4 months and think it is one of the best monitoring systems i have used Not sure if anyone has asked but it would be great if we could log events server stats notifications etc to a lcoal database eg an access database from the dashboard App This would allow us to do automatic server reporting for my clients eg average server loads, Uptime stats etc Thanks again for the App Cheers Peter

The ability to view a users browsing habits and alerts on specified sites would be useful if possible

Notification when external ip address change.

I discoverd this app when browsing my ipod and loved it from the moment it booted up! however, I am not using this as a server monitor app. I use this to monitor temps, and processor/ RAM Spikes along with various other uses while Gaming. The First thing that would be nice is the ability to monitor your graphics card (Card's) temp, GDDR and GPU utilization, and fan. The second would be, I noticed that in hardware details, it gives me three mainboard temps. however they have no discription of what componnent is being monitord therefor i have no way of pinpointing a problem if there ever is one. ( i dont know if this is just limitid to my board or how the program was …

Hi There Love the program. Just a minor tweak. In the dashboard there's an option under Settings->Runtime that once selected will "Play a system sound on new alerts" Can we have an option to select and play different sounds (saved WAV or MP3 files stored on our PC) on new alerts? Extending that a bit further, I would also like to be able to be able to choose different sounds for different monitored PCs for different types of alerts. I need to buy a 3rd monitor to put the Dashboard up permanently, for now I sometimes find that the dashboard gets hidden by my work so relying on sounds would be a great help. Don't know if anyone else thinks that might be…

I have finally acquired a big tv to go on the wall of the office Its now happily running the Dashboard. Would it be possible to make the dashboard split screen? I.e Current setup on the left of the screen and on the right some sort of rss style ticker that cycles through the event notifications?I know this does it at them bottom, but I am currently monitoring about 120 systems so I would like a 'cleaner' alternative.

As user I would like to see the next or previous event in event log from currently displayed event detail so I can check event log faster. Thank you.

Serious a great idea to be able to monitor the antivirus. If out of date, or they have an alert of virus

Would be cool if I can read the temps in fahrenheit. Unless there is a setting to change it that I couldn't find.

It would be great if we could get a notification when a user locks out their account.

Hi It would be very usefull to have the feature add/delete users from AD Thanks in advance!

Just learned about this application this week and love it so far. Would love to see support for DD-WRT routers, being able to monitor and make some config changes would be awesome.

Typically, in a Remote Desktop hosting environment, we want to keep the per-user memory footprint as small as possible. 8 MB doesn't seem like much on a typical desktop or server, but on an RDSH, every byte counts, because RDSH capacity is generally determined by RAM. My understanding from another thread, here, is that PCMONTASK was added for the screen view feature, and that's all it's used for. Even at 8MB, this one task increases the memory footprint of an RDPINIT session here by about 50%, and is far larger than any of the other per-user "overhead" tasks we run here. By "overhead", I mean the mimimum background processes that are not what the user logs on in ord…

Ok, I know I've been requesting a lot .. lol but I love this software and can't help but think of things that would make my life easier as a network administrator while I'm using it... so please dont take my "wants" as a criticism... I would love some type of customized short cut page/tab.. Currently, to see my locked out users I have to navigate through 4 levels and same with VMWare and IIS stuff.. Do you think it would be possible to add the ability to "pin" or "bookmark" our favorite sections? For example, I would have the following on my "shortcut list" or "dashboard" if you will: - Active Directory Locked out Users (From DC2) - IIS Web Site (Default W…

Would also, love to see a widget to place on one of my android screens .. that way I could just slide over to it when I'm curious as to what's going on .. I'd love to be able to customize it to and be able to select what information to show. For example, I might do the following: - Show active user count on my terminal server - Show memory/cpu usage - Items in queue on the exchange server - Maybe even active calls on my asterisk server (I know that one is a stretch)

I would love to see the current badPwdCount and badPasswordTime (as reflected in ADSI Edit) shown when looking at a user in Active Directory. Currently only the Logon Count is shown which isn't very informative by itself .. Thanks! Bill

Hi It would be great if it was possible to create rules on windows services resources For instance: If a service process is using 60% CPU or 2GB memory, kill the process and possibly restart it. Thanks, Marco

I would love to use PC Monitor for my organization. However, our security policies require two factor authentication. I would like to see something similar to LogMeIn, where, upon logging in, the user is (optionally) emailed a one time use code before access is granted.

I have a lot of file servers. In the rare case that I would need to reboot one remotely, it would be great if I could view what files are open and by who (through computer management/shared folders/open files) that way, I could do it all from my phone.

I'd like to be able to tell PCM to monitor all HDDs, instead of specifying one at a time. And as HDDs are added and deleted, automatically monitor them, too. It's pretty rare to find a disk I don't care about! HDD monitoring should also report Windows' storage Events (from NTFS, Disk, ATAPI, SMART...all the built-in stuff) without having to explicitly set up Event Log notifications for them. And since we're on the subject again, a repeat request for monitoring mount points and not just drive letters.

I'm a big believer in principle of least permissions. AD includes several built-in levels of administrative permissions, and allows creation of many more through Delegation and Group Policy. PC Monitor makes every user an uber-admin, because it runs as LocalSystem, one of the most powerful accounts in a system. I'm a one-man shop at this point, but hope for big growth when I'm in production. There will come a time, possibly fairly soon, where I will no longer be able to use PC Monitor because it does not allow me to properly secure the system. I'd like for PCM to impersonate users, and use AD to determine what they are permitted to do, which servers they're permi…

Hello, I would really love to know when my computer was last seen online (Date and Time if possible). This information should be included when the computer is offline. It's useful to know when the computer got offline if you don't actually monitor it's power state. Any comments on this? Thanks.

When creating a new Event Log Notification, typically I want the Notification to have a "Priority" that maps to its "Level". So, please make the Priority default to whatever is the highest Level of the checkboxes that are selected for the Notification, but still allow the user to select a Priority they prefer. By default, then: Error = Critical Warning = Elevated Information = Normal. Or Low. Not sure of the difference. What's the difference between Low and Normal in PCM Priorities?
