I'm happy to see that this project is not dead ... For me the goal of a monitoring system is to manage every parts of an IT architecture: Software and Hardware for Systems and Networks (LAN, WAN even SAN) to be able to detect/anticipate any problem quickly (Reactive and Proactive approach). JFFNMS is perfect for this, the main problem that I see is the lack of interface/host dependency checking causing bunch of non useful informations/alerts (I use JFFNMS for big networks with more than 100 remote sites, 1000 hosts and more than 12000 interfaces).
For this reason I have started to image a poller that do interface and host dependency checking. I don't have enough time to code it, so I will hire an external coder to do it, for the moment the specifications for the poller are in French, it will be good to discuss about it if we fork the project. What do you think about it guys ?

Not just SNMP either, thought that is the majority of pollers it doesn't need to be just that. I've written a discovery/poller for the NUT (Network UPS Tools) program which just uses TCP connections. The NTP and reachability are another two that spring to mind. - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 http://www.enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au http://www.debian.org/ Debian GNU/Linux, software should be Free ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
