I looked at Cacti a long time ago and it was ok. I looked again and it seems really cool. I setup and managed to get a graph of Apache server requests using the server-status handler. It's a slight learning curve dealing with all the templating. How are you guys doing data collection? External scripts? SNMP? snmpd calling external scripts? I'd like a little more granularity that the default stuff... for example a graph of each vmstat column would be nice. Our current homegrown rrd system is about 1200 graphs and 150 data collection scripts. So the less i have to "touch" my systems (making users, copying scripts, setting up crontabs, ssh keys, etc), the better. ray
