Looks like most of the responses have multiple admins, so I need some advice...

I'm curious how you handle the port forwarding required for so many admins when using RC.

I will soon face this issue of adding more admins for support, and forsee the only option to statically assign an IP address to each machine they will use, and forward a different port for each of those machine. Thus having a port associated with a particular IP and each admin having to remember which is 'their' port for RC.

Am I looking at doing this the hard way, or is there a simpler way to solve this issue?

Myself and a part time admin support 239 users (thank you sysaid for that number) at 8 sites covering 5 counties in southeast Michigan USA and just as many computers plus network hardware, servers, phones etc. There are 5 other I.T. staff, but they are not helpdesk oriented staff. Director, DB Admin, etc. But they do help out when needed.

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

Me as the Service Desk (L1 & L2) support.

Supporting 7 sites so far (more contracts added on a weekly basis)

Anywhere between 200-400 users I believe.

Only about 50 or 60 machines though. Which is nice.

Oh, and I have to use a service desk tool - hence why I'm here.

Hey guys,
I am thinking like an expert IT help-desk user can go up to 500 assets (or workstations i mean) with sysaid or another help-desk/asset management/monitoring software.

What you think?
