I've setup minimal monitoring of memory and disk usage using OID's already supported by the older SNMP package (do an snmpwalk to find interesting things to monitor). I haven't actually switched to net-snmp yet (although I have verified it's working), although the intent is to be able to monitor things like CPU & web-server load. I've also started playing with OpenNMS (http://www.opennms.org), but don't have anything working yet...looks pretty cool, though.
