About System Administrator Tools
If you are a Unix system administrator who is taking care of multiple servers, you probably
created some scripts to help you keeping your environment stable. With SADMIN you can be
alerted when something goes wrong, when a script fail or just to let you know that your
script ran with success. You can received these alerts via email, SMS
or Slack application. SADMIN surely can help
you, improve and standardize the administration of your server farm.

things in SADMIN.
SADMIN is working on most popular Linux distributions
- The SADMIN client have been tested to work on Redhat, Fedora, CentOS, Debian,
Ubuntu, Raspbian and Aix.
- The SADMIN server should work on any Linux distribution but it's only supported on
Redhat, CentOS, Fedora and Debian, Ubuntu and Raspbian distribution.
- In less than 10 minutes, you can install and start using the tools. I have been
working for more than two years on these tools and I am happy to release the
SADMIN project.
I will continue to add and enhance the SADMIN tools over the years to come.
There is much more to come, stay tuned.
