Thanks. We tried that, but, it still never discovered anything, so, I
gave it up, and, did them manually...

Hi

Network Discovery needs access to the ARP table on the remote router
interface so you need to add the local interface IP address of all your
routers to Network discovery and SNMP community name, the best thing
will be
to add the same read-only community name to all the routers because the
Network Discovery will cycle throught all the community names you add
triggering alerts in your network monitors.

We have some workstations that are on workgroups, not on the Domain,

need to discover them--what's the best way. I was assuming Network
Discovery, but, when I tried that, on a particular subnet, it didn't
seem to
find any computers, even though they were there and running.

Also, on the Client Installation setup, I have three accounts, first a
DA
account, second a renamed Local Administrator account that we use on
all
computers that have been out there awhile, third our original Local
Administrator account that is used when we clone our computers.

I assume that, if the first account can't install the client, it will
try
the other two in turn, until it can? How many accounts can be in that
list?

Thanks.
