RE: MS tools and resource communications - was: IIS reporting/monitoring free tool
Awesome responses guys. I had a funeral to attend to so this morning was my first chance to read through this stuff. Will check some of the links and see what I can get going. I really appreciate you all and if credit is due, I am giving it ahead of time because I will forget later. Thanks again.

Of course for a while I heavily supported a web developer community (Drupal) so was aware of a lot of web focused tools. It was also mentioned in various podcasts and videos are part of an overall tool set from MS. It was more mentioned when the Firebug tool came out years ago. However when that happened all the Firebug advocates could say was 'copy' or well but I don't use IE or something else and promptly dismiss it. Some random links regarding it just cause: :) TechNet http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/gg589507(v=vs.85).aspx Scott Hanselman - I think he has something to do with MS, not sure... small obscure role maybe. I think he posts random stuff. http://www.hanselman.com/blog/TheInternetIsNotABlackBoxLookInside.aspx On the IE8 announcement page there is a mention of it. (Not digging up IE9 :) http://www.microsoft.com/web/platform/tools-ie.aspx?templang=fr-ch - MS just can't get buzz on some things when every time they try the Internets jump on and devolve it into a giant bonfire of a comment fest. It doesn't help that they are so large and have so many different voices and outlets. They have been doing much better in the last few years trying to build communities around interests and specialties and MVPs but they are so large it's challenging and often from our perspective there are missteps and so much over all noise that really cool or neat things get lost or missed. So, in the interests of communications, if you weren't aware here are some additional sources of information. :) TechNet wiki is a nice place depending on the technology you support lots of additional content there and the ability to add to it yourself and edit.

That is basically it.

Re: IIS reporting/monitoring free tool
Fire up Wireshark on a mirror port on the switch to which those clients are attached, and see what's happening. BTW - don't just filter for traffic between the web server and the client - make sure to capture all of the packets to and from the clients during the test (though you will want to have no other applications open on the clients to keep the traffic clean).

Re: IIS reporting/monitoring free tool
For basic testing from a client machine you can also use F12 in IE. Go to Network, Start Capture Type in the URL Click around, do stuff. Stop Capture. It will at least get you response request information, various calls etc. and it's most likely on the client system already. That said, play around with the other tools, this just happens to already be there. :) On Thu, Feb 28, 2013 at 12:47 PM, Ziots, Edward ezi...@lifespan.org wrote: Fiddler can tell you some of the same information but httpwatch is a good tool to troubleshoot client side issues when looking at web information.

MS tools and resource communications - was: IIS reporting/monitoring free tool
I've known about it for years and have mentioned it a time or two on this list. :) I worked with some of the MS folks on some stuff they sponsored for in the Open Source community and they just cannot get credit for the stuff they do without angry people and rioters showing up to burn the place down. Of course for a while I heavily supported a web developer community (Drupal) so was aware of a lot of web focused tools. It was also mentioned in various podcasts and videos are part of an overall tool set from MS. It was more mentioned when the Firebug tool came out years ago. However when that happened all the Firebug advocates could say was 'copy' or well but I don't use IE or something else and promptly dismiss it. Some random links regarding it just cause: :) TechNet http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/gg589507(v=vs.85).aspx Scott Hanselman - I think he has something to do with MS, not sure... small obscure role maybe. I think he posts random stuff. http://www.hanselman.com/blog/TheInternetIsNotABlackBoxLookInside.aspx On the IE8 announcement page there is a mention of it. (Not digging up IE9 :) http://www.microsoft.com/web/platform/tools-ie.aspx?templang=fr-ch - MS just can't get buzz on some things when every time they try the Internets jump on and devolve it into a giant bonfire of a comment fest. It doesn't help that they are so large and have so many different voices and outlets. They have been doing much better in the last few years trying to build communities around interests and specialties and MVPs but they are so large it's challenging and often from our perspective there are missteps and so much over all noise that really cool or neat things get lost or missed.

RE: IIS reporting/monitoring free tool
The best way you are going to get a true picture of this if is you run the tool on the client machine, or at the client's location. Not on the server. On the server you can look at the Time-Taken field in the IIS logs to get some idea of how long it takes IIS to put the page onto the wire. That's not the same as the client actually receiving the packet, and doesn't take into account any proxies, accelerators, caches etc. between the server and the client. Anyway, if you have some more requirements, then perhaps we can help with your searching.

Free tool for querying remote Windows Event Logs
Hi list, I'm pleased to have something new to share that I think a lot of you will find useful; having been frustrated by the slow speed of EventCombMT and the ponderous behavior of the Event Log MMC snap-in when trying to do everyday things like diagnose account lockouts and AD object changes, I knew there had to be a better way... If you're on a Server 2008+ [*] environment and don't mind breaking out a command shell window, here is that better way: http://zetetic.net/products/events As a sample use case, the command ZeShell -e delete,after=20-july-2011 will scan all of your domain's read-write domain controllers, in parallel, for AD object deletions since July 20. Or you can give it a list of event IDs in the familiar 1,2,3,5-10 format. Just type ZeShell -? for details. You'll need to be in the Event Log Readers group (or have Admin or DA access) for each machine you want to query. Please try it out, kick the tires, let me know what you think! I promise you will find this to be *much* faster than the built-in log viewer. We're absolutely open to ideas and suggestions too. Thanks, Steve [*] This tool is also able to query the Event Log on 2003 / XP hosts, but it will not do so with the same speed and efficiency as querying Server 2008, Vista, Win7, or newer, due to limitations of the older eventing service. -- skra...@zetetic.net Philadelphia, PA ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/ ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin

I'm sorry if my note came across as spammy. I posted to this list because I think the list members will find it useful. The software is free of charge for any purpose and contains no nags, and you may fill out the contact form with bogus information if you like. I believe this is in compliance with the list charter.

Re: Free tool for querying remote Windows Event Logs
LogParser is definitely very powerful--much, much more flexible, in fact--it is sort of a mini-ETL tool. On the other hand, it hasn't been updated in over six years, and doesn't seem to be aware of the Server 2008 event log facilities, which can make an *enormous* difference in the time and resources needed to satisfy a search. This tool only works with event logs, and only renders the output to text, but can be dramatically faster to that end. --Steve On Wed, Jul 27, 2011 at 2:30 PM, Rubens Almeida rubensalme...@gmail.com wrote: LogParser comes to mind when I have to deal with remote event logs...

If you don't get a specific response, you might consider rolling your own.
It's trivial to do in PowerShell
$ip =192.168.100.81
$ping = new-object System.Net.NetworkInformation.Ping
$rslt = $ping.send($ip)
if ($rslt.status.tostring() -eq Success) {
write-host ping worked
}
else {
write-host ping failed
}
$ping = $null

Each ping command is executed in a separate thread. The application uses ICMP.DLL to send ping commands to the target.
