I'll agree with others that nagios is a very useful tool. It provides a lot more tools for reporting than some of the other programs I tried. And since you can set up parent-child relationships between destinations, it wont give you a bunch of warnings for children unreachable if the parent goes down.
While it is only in unstable, it easily backports to stable. I have .deb's available via anonymous ftp for anyone who want to try it on stable. Just drop me a note and I'll point you to the proper place. --dwh --- Dale W Hodge - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Vice Chairman & Secretary - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Air Capital Linux User's Group (ACLUG) www.aclug.org --- > -----Original Message----- > From: Christian Lyra [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > HI, > > I use to use nagios too.
