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.
