for malicious behavior. Some people keep forgetting to either keep their computer on or logged in. I am tired of reminding people of these most things. Therefore, if a policy was enforced there would be need for any more concern. Sweeper.

I will look into all of these options. Am I right to say that SMS stands for Systems Management Server? Would l be able to create a script that make these computers function the way I want them to?

Basically it's
free if you want to do it manually, or write your own script, and you pay if you want features. It deals with the problem you are talking about, but it does it by turning the computer on if it's off.
