Action

Ssaudit can be run stand-alone but you should normally set up to run it under a scheduler.

Installation

Copy the program into a 'Utilities' directory under x:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\common\vss.

Install a commercial Scheduler to run it. The 'at' schedule service DOES NOT WORK!.

To support emails to the designated engineer, install wMailTo.exe with wMessage.txt in the Utilities directory. Place wMailTo.ini in the WINNT directory.

Program dirsize must be in the Utilities directory. This is used to monitor the size of the temp directory.
