System Script Host (SSH) is a language-independent scripting host for Windows NT/2000/XP/2003. It provides an environment for executing scripts written in script languages supported by installed ActiveX script engines like VBScript, JScript, PerlScript, etc. Scripts execute like Windows NT services: in the background and unattended. The SSH run-time environment allows script programmers to implement system management and system monitoring applications with great ease and almost unlimited flexibility. The current version supports monitoring of the following event sources:

Timer IPC Event Log

Performance Data Services File System

SNMP Traps Syslog Registry

Other features worthy of mention are:

• The administrator UI is implemented as an MMC snap-in that supports remote administration
• SSH can be programmatically managed using Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) or by the provided SSH Manager Automation Objects.
• The set of all scripts on a computer may be partitioned into more than one application, providing process isolation in case of runtime errors
• Every SSH application can be run in a different user account
• Exposed performance counters allow for monitoring runtime parameters
• Support for script debugging
• Support for Inter-Script-Communication:
  • Between scripts of the same SSH application
  • Between scripts of different SSH applications which may be distributed across the network

Supported OS: Windows NT/2000/XP/2003
