Abstract
A system and method are presented for a low cost and efficient remote systems management tool. In exemplary embodiments of the present invention a system environment includes the installation of a small software component on each client device. These components work in conjunction with one or more distributed and/or centralized support servers to obtain software updates, and then execute a series of software modules. In contrast with conventional systems, since neither dedicated servers nor specialized scripting languages are required, a system according to an embodiment of the present invention can leverage industry standard technologies. Thus, in exemplary embodiments of the present invention support servers can be, for example, existing file/print servers running on a local area network or secure FTP servers which are hosted either inside or outside of an enterprise LAN environment. Additionally, such a system can be coded in readily available scripting languages. Thus, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention designed to manage client devices running MS Windows.TM. systems, the system can be coded in, for example, WinBatch.TM..
