though i am not using such a tool myself, a quick "open source network
discovery" returned some results.
first result was

seems that it can generate at least something :)

and i agree that tool like this should not be incorporated in office
software package, though importing it's output might be a better idea ;)
Rich,
Thanks for that link, there is a lot more information that I'm looking
for than just network connectivity.
I'm looking for tools that can inventory my environment to include SANs
(Storage Area Network).
This falls in line with SRM and asset management.
The thing is Storage Vendors has this in many of their apps like EMC has
ECC, HDS has HiCommand,
Veritas has Command Central and others. But those are complex
configuration and cost a lot of money
to obtain. So I'm looking for a cheaper way and that is why I was wonder
if anyone in the openoffice
group was doing anything remotely close to visio.
Dia folks won't touch visio porting or the stencils that are there now.
I guess they are afraid of legal
rights to doing so. But I've come across a Mac application called Net
something can't remember and don't
have the app infront of me. It's not bad.
Symantec release something called Discovery which seems to only cover
servers inventory and only works
on a windows box.
Again I appreciate the list repsonse and hope that in the future, that
someone works on that idea. It seem obvious
of the need being there. Just someone picking up the bag and start coding..
Phillip
