I'm hip.  I haven't gotten into learning about the NRPE stuff yet, though.

I'm willing to be a manual guinea pig if I can scrape up the time.  That is
a bit . . . challenging . . . these days, with a toddler and all.

Nagios works well for this, but it's a bear to configure.

Could not agree more. But boy, the traffic that goes through Nagios mailing
list? - phenominal. I have written some nifty perl scripts to report status
via nrpep. I would like to use SNMP alerts to nofity Nagios (our operators
call it 'nachos'!) on exception basis rather than poll every 10 minutes,
like we do now.



The documentation
is really, really awful. The combination of Nagios and NRPE agents is
pretty
slick though.

Nagios documentation is a good start but there is a lot of stuff that one
needs to experiment to get it working. The VRML stuff is great.


I'm still working on a Nagios book -- anyone interested in being a early
guinea pig and reading drafts?


Try me. But with the workload piling on, dont expect quick responses.
