Hello,
can anyone tell me how or with what tools I can use to track my win2k
severs uptime. right now I'm just trying to keep track of it my writing it
down, but that is not a good process. I'm looking for more of an automated
process that I can generate reports from.

thank you,
Jon
 
What about checking the eventvwr? It tells you every time the eventvwr
service is started and stopped .... and if it's stopped it generally means
the system's going down .... dunno if that's what you mean though.
 
Use Uptime.exe from the NTReskit. Then create a text file called Servers.txt
with the names of the servers you wish to monitor one under the other.

Create a batch file:

FOR /F %%I in (Servers.txt) do uptime.exe %%I >> ServersUptime.txt

Either run the batch file manually or use Task Scheduler to automate it for
you (best run with an admin account).
