The Ultimate Enterprise System Management Software for Windows
DameWare NT Utilities (DNTU) is an enterprise system management application for Windows NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista which allows Administrators to go beyond the limitations of Microsoft’s Management Console (MMC). DNTU provides an integrated collection of Microsoft Windows NT administration utilities, incorporated within a “easy to use” centralized interface for remote management of Windows Servers and Workstations. Most all of the standard utilities are included within DNTU’s powerful Explorer-style interface, many of which have been greatly enhanced to provide superior performance, added functionality, and ease of use. DNTU also contains custom NT tools including the DameWare Mini Remote Control program and the Exporter, and also supports the use of standard shell property pages and shell context menus.
DNTU also contains a powerful Active Directory Object Browser, and extensive Active Directory functionality for retrieving, searching, and filtering of all AD Objects & attributes. Management of objects such as OUs (Organizational Units), Containers, Users, Groups, Contacts, Computers, & Shares, as well as attributes that are not available within Microsoft’s MMC (i.e. Photos, Logos, employee ID, etc…) are all supported. DNTU’s exclusive Quick OU & Picture/Logo management functionality just further emphasizes DameWare Development’s commitment to producing quality products that are easy to use.
In addition to Active Directory, DNTU also supports management of Domains, Workstations, Disk Drives, Event Logs, Local Groups, Global Groups, Domain members, Open Files, Printers, Processes, Properties, Registry, Services, Sessions, Shares, ShutDown/Reboot, Software, Terminal Services/RDP, Users, Wake-on-LAN, and many more features. DNTU continues to support legacy (non-AD) Microsoft Windows Network implementation via a dynamic “Microsoft Windows Network” Browser tree view. Domain controllers, servers and workstations, as well as non-browsable machines (machines that by default are not shown in Microsoft’s Windows Network Browser), can easily be managed via machine name or IP address after being added to the network browser tree view. DNTU basically gives you the ability to manage your Windows network from one easy to use Explorer-style interface.
DNTU also includes the DameWare Mini Remote Control program for fast and easy deployment and troubleshooting, and the Exporter to quickly extract information from remote Windows machines. For additional information on these products, please take a look at their corresponding product information pages.
DameWare Development’s affordable licensing policy is based on the number of administrators actually using the software, regardless of the number of servers or clients being accessed.

System Requirements
Operating System:
DameWare NT Utilities requires Windows NT 4.0, Service Pack 1 or greater (including Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows 2003 Server).
Active Directory:
DNTU’s Active Directory functionality is only supported on machines running Windows 2000 and above. However, even though it is not directly supported, many of DNTU’s Active Directory features will still work on machines running Windows NT4 SP-6a, provided you also installed Microsoft’s Active Directory Client Extensions (DSClient.exe) for Windows NT4.
For more information about Microsoft’s Active Directory Client Extensions, please refer to Microsoft’s website.

Exchange:
Exchange 2000 support is provided in version 4 and above within DNTU’s Active Directory Users & Computers section and does not require Microsoft’s Exchange Admin Tools. Exchange 5.5 functionality is only available via DNTU’s “old style” NetBios Users View, and requires the Exchange 5.5 version of the User Manager Extensions for Exchange. These Extensions can be installed from the Microsoft Exchange 5.5 CD-ROM.
COM Control:
