Barge,

I know this is beta but after installing it, the admin.exe generates and
error. Did you have any trouble installing it?

A couple of questions about Kerio Network Monitor Why is it the Scanned
Data pane only shows a couple of workstations? Does the agent need to be
installed on all stations I need to monitor?
