Hi Tom!
At this moment I'm deploying the Unicenter TNG with the Asset Management Option
with MS SQL Server. That's a big environment with 90 sites and 4000 Win95 Clients
using Solaris 2.6 with Samba. In my opinion MS SMS doesn't support this environment
satisfly. Only TNG support strategic management systems throughout the enterprise,
such as software delivery, help desk, network management,etc.
