I've written a PowerShell Script to download, and autoupdate the MIB.cfg file from Solarwinds. It will also restart the services and web sites. It should work for any of the products that work with the MIB.cfg providing you have PowerShell 2.0 and the WebAdministration Module. I've only had a chance to test on Windows 2008 R2.
Please add comments...
