Download Hyena 7.3

SystemTools has released a new release of Hyena with version number 7.3. Windows networks can be managed effortlessly with this program. For example, groups and users can be created, changed and deleted, it provides overviews of all processes running on different servers, it can run an audit to detect unpatched security vulnerabilities and the Active Directory can be managed faster and more easily than with Microsoft’s Management Console. A complete overview of the possibilities is available here this page to find back. The changelog for this release shows the following changes and improvements:

New Active Directory Features

• Methods to change the sequencing of AD queries on menus and adding separators for improved visual organization.
• Direct access to Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) reporting options.
• Capability to view users, groups, and computers objects as containers.

Other changes

• Increased the maximum number of user-defined tools to 99.
• Enabled displaying a disabled user account icon when viewing group members on Windows NT or local user groups.
• Changed Hyena event searching method to always allow searching in the event description field even if its not been added to the display columns. Previously, Hyena would only enable the option to search the event description field if it was displayed.
• Modified the Send Message function to allow entry of optional ‘From’ field.
• Fixed a problem causing Hyena to crash when a root computer or domain controller object was right clicked on in the left tree window.
• Increased size of Manage Directory Attributes multi-value edit dialog and fixed problem with long text not being scrollable.
• Created a new warning dialog when copying data to the clipboard/file (Control-C) that may have been truncated due to Windows limitation. The warning message can be disabled after seeing it for the first time.
• Created a new warning dialog when copying data to files (Control-C) and the output file already exists and will be overwritten. The warning message can be disabled after seeing it for the first time.
• Removed the restriction of not being able to use the ‘\’ character in a username since this character needs to be used when creating ‘escaped’ character sequences for LDAP compatibility.

New Advanced Settings

• Added an advanced registry value for controlling the command used to edit Group Policy Objects. To change the default command used, which is “mmc gpedit.msc /gpobject:”%s”, create a registry value named “GpoEditCmd” under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Software\AdkinsResource\Hyena\Advanced registry key. Set this value to be a REG_SZ datatype and put in the command string to use.Use a %s as a placeholder for the GPO object GUID ID.

Exporter Pro Changes

• Added option to export computer Sessions.
• Added option to export user full name and comment on user group members on Windows NT or local groups.
• Added count of objects processed on export completed progress messages.
• Added NO_SD_ADMIN_ONLY as display of security settings for admin shares (ie C$, D$, etc.)
