 I am trying to determine the root of an issue I am having.
 How can I watch traffic destined to a specific port on my CentOS 5.1
 box to see if its even hitting it? It would be udp traffic.

 Thanks!

Try tcpdump -i interface udp port port.

 No. I am on a few lists and each list with a different email address so

 its fine, just ignore my mails. It will be nice to stop making fun of me.

Outlook can be forced into sorting based on header.  Open the email then click 
on View  Options.  Pick out the List-ID header and create a rule based on 
it.

Most of the lists I'm on will only make humor out of a posting by someone with 
an email address that coinsides with the list name.

 Hi,
 I'm looking for a monitoring system that support snmp v3. I want to
 monitorize linux servers and network switches. Currently, I am trying
 to use zabbix, but sadly, it lack at present features that I need. For
 example, I want to get reporting screens with data and graphs from
 network switches, I'd like to configure one only port of a given
 switch and that is used as templates for the rest of switch ports and
 the rest of the switches.


 I'd like to use some open source software that meet that features, and
 I want to avoid Nagios :)

 Could you recommend me someone?

 Thanks in advance

I'm in the process of evaluating open source monitoring tools as well.

I've found Cacti to be the easiest to configure, especially with SNMP, but 
lacks alerting and only covers to performance.

Zenoss looks really really good, but I seem to get hung up on getting it 
configured to actually do anything.

I'm in the process of looking at Groundworks, but it is based on Nagios, which 
you'd like to avoid.

HypericHQ is another promising one -- haven't tried it yet.

Zabbix and OpenNMS are on the list as well.  I feel like there are a few more, 
but I can't recall at the moment.

So far, Zenoss shows the most promise.  I don't know what it is, but I have 
the hardest time wrapping my brain around its configuration.  Maybe it is 
because it has a unique modeling approach.

Hope these help.
