I don't have any relationship with vendors either but have used the Kane =
eval copy on my server and it works well (crippled) and provides sound =
information in a graphic and detailed manner.

I like it because unlike the very good competitor tool from Bindview it =
requires no server code and runs from your workstation.

The only negative appears to be cost - a traveling license (for =
consultants) is fairly expensive and seems aimed at the large accounting =
firms and not small business. Other than that, it's a good tool.

Cheers
Barry

world successes or failures encountered in the use of this product.

  copy for NT or Novell NetWare. As I didn't have a NT or NetWare =
machine
  handy I just grabbed the KSA Demo (walks through the software) and I
  was quite impressed with the demo. Which is not to say that it is any
  great success or failure in real world use..=20
