NSClient for NT 4

Might seem like a stupid question, but where can I find the latest version of NSClient for Windows NT? As far as I'm aware NSClient++ does not work, so I want to make sure I have the latest NSClient on our few remaining NT boxes.

It does in fact look like ++ will work in addition to older nsclient. Have you looked into
this page? Although it is about 4 years old. I would highly suggest sticking with the 3.x version if you are going to try that route. Otherwise we are digging around to see what we can find.

Solid, thanks. I had not seen that. I will forward this to our windows team to have them try it.

Ran into a snag. The second link (
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... ae384097ac) appears to be dead. We were able to get the PDH Library in, but NSClient++ still will not install.

Wow, that was hard to find(no sarcasm meant, was honestly hard!)
I would of course scan that for a virus. It should be placed in system32 folder and then dont forget to register it with
Code: Select all
RegSvr32 C:\Windows\System32\psapi.DLL

I may be wrong about the location. Most pages I saw said system32, but the link I shared says system and doesn't mention registering the dll at all.
It has been too long since I used NT, so I can't recall

System would be correct, as for registering the dll, I think it is needed with regsrv32 or the register command. I would definitely agree with the scanning of that dll, or upload to something like virustotal that will scan with most every engine out there.

Great, thanks! I've forwarded this onto our Windows team to have them take a look. I'll update when they've given it a go. Thanks again.
