I'm an 'expert' as of today

Really pleased today. Since we started this venture I've wanted to give support to the LANDesk community by posting on http://community.landesk.com . Today I got the points needed to classify me as an 'Expert'. A little sad of me but it felt pretty nice.

I'm going to keep being active and aim to get high up on that leaderboard. I got a lot of help from the old forum in my early years and it's nice to be able to give some of that help back.

Our 100th LANDesk Power State Notifier Download

Wow! Looks like we found something you all really like. Today we had our 100th download for Power State Notifier Lite for LANDesk. Wake On WAN for LANDesk isn't far behind either.

I'm really glad so many people have seen the benefit from this tool and we continue to work to bring some even greater capabilities in the near future.

Thanks for all the support and the great feedback.

Wake-On-WAN for LANDesk 8.7 Support Added

Following on from the previous post, we have now updated the download so that includes the LANDesk 8.7 support module. For those of you that tried the LANDesk 8.8 build, just download this using your original download link, uninstall your previous version and install this one.

If you can't find it, just go to http://www.marxtar.com/products/WakeOnWAN/LANDesk-Wake-On-WAN.htm and re-register for the download.

Enjoy!

What new tools would float your boat?

At MarXtar we're working on the release of a number of exciting products but we are always open for new ideas. Why not tell us what new tools either to support your existing LANDesk system or to act as a standalone product would really make your life easier.

Remember, we're looking for ideas that are feasible (no anti-grav sneakers) and for ideas that are likely to apply to others as well. Simple but effective is the key.

Let us know what your idea is by emailing marketing@marxtar.com and if we develop your idea your company will receive a copy free of charge.

Issue - Wake-On-WAN on LANDesk 8.7

We have discovered an issue where our plug-in is not working with the LANDesk 8.7 console. We have realised that we missed the piece that we need to launch .Net2.0 from the .Net1.1 console.

We are working on rebuilding so that the call will work properly and apologise for this. We'll update everyone that gave a valid email address once this has been done and uploaded as well as posting to this blog.
