I have used Nagios for many years, ever since before it was called Nagios. It's my preferred open-source monitoring solution. I've also put a lot of time over the years into looking for GUI interface options for Nagios. I, myself, live all day in VI, and I rarely even have X11 installed on my servers. But for others I work with, novice-friendly web interfaces can be real nice. That being said, I like what Groundwork has done a lot. I only discovered what they were doing in the last 6-12 months. Before that, I was generally not satisfied with the quality and features of Nagios GUI options. I've been using the open-source version of Groundwork's package, the latest stable version. (4.5.11, I believe) It made it VERY easy to set up a new server and install all required software. (One big RPM package, mainly) I was also greatly impressed with the quality of the GUI itself. It seems to give easier options for setting up some things, as well as nicer security access options. I highly recommend anyone trying to set up Nagios consider the open-source Groundwork package. For Nagios veterans, well, I'd probably still recommend it about as highly! ;) Is anyone using GroundWork Foundation ( > http://www.groundworkopensource.com/products ) with Nagios? Any > thoughts on the company or their product would be appreciated. Not familiar with the Foundation stuff, no. -- Jason Byrns Production Manager System Administrator http://www.MicroLnk.com/ 402-328-8600 ext. 653 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
