Trapping an Event
Being able to send reboot or 'I'm alive' trap messages is useful, but it's more useful to send trap messages based on an event. "Event" here refers to an event logged by Event View er, be it an Error, Warning or Informational. Why is this useful?Picture this: Without using any third party tool to push errors from a managed server to a management system, how w ould you know that your managed servers w ent dow n just like that?

There are tw o tools designed to configure event trapping, and make administrators' lives easier. First is Microsoft's GUI tool evntw in (See Figure 4). Alternatively, administrators w ho love hanging out w ith the black command prompt screen can use evntcmd. As cool as the GUI tool can get, how ever evntw in does not configure Trap Destination.
Speaking on my ow n, and maybe for the small businesses out there, it's in our interest (and Microsoft's) to include a netw ork management system, maybe in its Microsoft Window s Small Business Server line.
