Site Management Software ^(TM) ("SMS for UNIX") is a system management tool for SCO OpenServer and SCO Unix computer systems.  SMS makes it much easier to manage one SCO Unix site, 100 sites, or 1,000 sites.

SMS for UNIX consists of the following components:

• An easy-to-use, easy-to-modify character-based menu system.

 
• Pre-written modules to assist with user-, printer-, terminal-, disk-, and process-management.

 
• A simple interface that lets you add your own custom programs to SMS.

Because SMS for UNIX is written using the Unix Korn shell, it's very easy to expand the system and add your own functions.  The menu system is also very portable between Unix systems, though  it's primarily intended for SCO OpenServer and Unix systems.

Benefits

Some of the benefits that SMS for UNIX provides include:

• SMS greatly simplifies the management of an SCO Unix system.

 
• SMS reduces the need to learn Unix commands.

 
• SMS greatly reduces the training requirements for Support Centers. Support personnel will spend much less time at the Unix command line.

 
• It's easily expandable (extensible) to include your own programs.

 
• Pre-written modules make it easy to manage user accounts, terminals, printers, disks, and Unix processes.

SMS makes it easy for you to create and customize your own menus.  Here you can see some sample screen shots that demonstrate what typical menus look like:

• Sample main menu

 
• Sample printer management menu

 
• Sample process management menu

 

Pricing

The Site Management Software is now offered as free open-source software. No license, no royalties, just free software to make Unix systems management easier than ever before. We hope you like it. (Note - if you see anywhere in the code that royalties are required, just ignore those notices. The code is now free. We'll try to update all of the wording soon.)
