I'm probably going to regret this but...   ;-)There are open source 
alternatives as well, if you are bent in that direction. Two examples about 
which I have heard good things but have no direct 
experience:http://www.splunk.comhttp://www.zenoss.comBefore anyone flames me 
for this, please understand that I've provided this information simply because 
I have found that there are those who strongly prefer open source alternatives. 
For that type of person or organization, I believe you'll find the above to be 
the most proven options. I don't know names, but I have heard that at least one 
NetWorker customer is using splunk.BTW, Curtis, long time no speak. I hope this 
finds you well.Brian> Date: Fri, 8 Jun 2007 13:33:41 -0400> From: cpreston AT
