I think one of these 2 might work for you:

Spiceworks www.spiceworks.com - free (with Ads) runs on Win2k/XP/2003

http://www.ilient.com/website/serverTrial.jsp - free for 100 clients/users,
runs on Linux or Windows

I know ilient will scan Windows, Mac and Linux. Not sure if Spiceworks will.

HTH,
Nick
