+# Script Name		: daily_checks.py
+# Author				: Craig Richards
+# Created				: 07th December 2011
+# Last Modified		: 01st May 2013
+# Version				: 1.4
+
+# Modifications		: 1.1 Removed the static lines for the putty sessions, it now reads a file, loops through and makes the connections.
+#							: 1.2 Added a variable filename=sys.argv[0] , as when you use __file__ it errors when creating an exe with py2exe.
+#							: 1.3 Changed the server_list.txt file name and moved the file to the config directory.
+#							: 1.4 Changed some settings due to getting a new pc
+
+# Description			: This simple script loads everything I need to carry out the daily checks for our systems.
