I stumbled accross this a while back. It's called LANguard Network scanner, and for being free, it sure is nice. Tells you who's logged onto the network, what protocols there using, even scans pc's for open ports. Go to

This software is only free if you use it for personal use not in an enterprise situation. This could lead the the BSA gestapo agents paying you a visit by not registering it for comercial use. Thanks

Cool, tried it from my W98 desktop, didn't work. Gotta run it from NT or W2K. Thanks for the heads-up.
 
It is a nice product...even though we had to pay $800 for the comercial license

I use a linux box with nmap on it for port scanning and other network monitoring tools such as ntop, jnettop, and dsniff (arpspoof, urlsnarf, mailsnarf, etc...). Every tool we use is free because it is covered by the GPL. Monitoring W2K systems I use PerfMon and yada, yada, yada. For the things we don't have, I can script it in Perl or VBScript.

Admins have to be careful with "FreeWare". Many software published with this tag excludes commercial use.
