I would like to recommend a piece of software known as GLPI ... when
used in conjunction with OCSng, it will track all hardware and
software installed on each machine, which users use which machines, etc.
It also can use ADS or LDAP for authentication, and there is the
ability to create FAQs that users can search.
So, the combination can be used as a software/hardware inventory
program and trouble ticket system.

Does someone has an rpm version?
I did some tests on OCS-ng, but everything broke on the upgrade of the
test pc...
WRT RPMS, no.
They have built perl scripts to run for upgrades and installs, and it is
very complex, so RPMS would just down load the stuff and execute the
perl script. Fairly worthless in this case. In fact, for things that
just unpack into a web dir (mambo web server, phpmyadmin, etc.) I think
RPMS are fairly worthless.
But... You need a bunch of perl and php modules that would be better
handled as rpms (and even nicer if their install script could 'yum
install' them if missing or dependencies pulled them in automatically).
They may all be available from the rpmforge repo.
