I have three questions about the network scanning function.
1. Is there a way to limit what the Admin Kit on a Slave server scans (IP ranges, domains)? I show 88 domains, my Slave server only handles 4 of them.
2. I have a few computers that will not show up during the scan. I have one computer that hasn't been seen in over 3 weeks I deleted it's original record from the IP subnetwork it was listed under because IP address was not updating and I could not push agent to it. I have another that I just added to the network this morning (4 hours ago) and I have yet to see it listed.
3. Any way to actually FORCE a new scan to happen. I see no effect pushing the "scan now" button.

I found an answer to #1, #3 may be due to a locked down coporate policy, but I SERIOUSLY need help with #2. Any way other than MANUALLY installing network agent on the two problem machines?
Hello,
You can try to force a network scan in the properties of your Administration Server on the Network tab, or you can install Network Agent locally, define the IP Address of your Administration Server and then your hosts should be visible in your administration console.
