Apps for the Sys/Network admin in your life

Blog posts listing the 'top ten apps for OS X,' or '25 apps that will make your Mac happy,' are a dime a dozen. You are bound to see Quicksilver, Growl, Adium, and the like on those lists. It is a rare occurrence for me to find a blog post that recommends software that I have never heard of, and that is gear towards the geekiest of the geeky: the system and network admins.

Niranjan Kunwar has compiled a list of OS X apps that are great tools for anyone who needs to admin servers or networks alike. It certainly isn't comprehensive, but it is a great start.

Sysadmins out there, what are some of your favorite Mac apps?

Tip of the Day

Use Spotlight as a reference tool. Type any word in the Spotlight box and one of the top entries will be a definition. Click on it, and it will bring up the dictionary application to check the word in either the dictionary, thesaurus, Apple database, or Wikipedia.
