Run outside of our domain?

[pryan67]

Our organization acquires new companies and integrate them into our domain, but prior to full integration (or before beginning integration in fact) we would like to get an inventory of hardware and software. We would like to use Lansweeper for that (we are currently licensed), but since it wouldn't be on our domain yet, what is the easiest way to do that?

Can we install the "trial" version on each new site, and then let the temporary license lapse and use our current licenses once they're added to our domain? Is there a different/preferred way of doing that?

If you're fine with having all the data in 1 database, I would recommend setting up additional scanning servers in the new companies. This also depends if you have a license with multiple scanning servers.

If you don't have multiple scanning servers you can use a trial to get an inventory and then export and import it later into your main Lansweeper installation.

Thanks...we'll likely go the "trial" route. Then just import it. That appears to be the easiest and cleanest way. Once we integrate them fully we'll have them on the same server.

Do you have Domain Admin priv to that domain? If so, you can use your current version of Lansweeper to scan it as well (if you have enough device licenses in your Lansweeper licensing).

We're scanning two seperate domains that aren't in a trusted relationship between each other. We're allowing traffic through our firewall to access that other network for our Lansweeper server. It helped out big time doing this. We can see their environment and we know what equipment they have now. When we're ready to merge our two networks, we know what licensing we'll need to purchase to do so.
