Never used it myself but I'm quite sure you can get quite alot of info from sp_help_jobhistory. Look it up in BOL...

The sp_help_jobhistory will work for both. I would assume you are running the DTS packages through jobs. So, you should be able to see the history of both. It does give the job name, last run, duration, and success or failure.

If you are want a more granular picture of the DTS packages, use sysdtspackages and sysdtspackagelog. This give the information specific to the DTS packages.
