I actually reached for an older linux distro called sentinix. Comes kind of out of the box with Snort/ACD and Nagios/Nagios Admin. A little dated but as it sits behind a very secure firewall it is extremely effective and fairly painless and has a cost of $0.

IPMonitor is good. And if anyone is tired of any IPSwitch products (such as us) We've found this to be good and a good price. We were using IPSwitch What's Up Gold until IPSwitch started it's Imail pricing change. We've switched from their FTP Client and Server, Server Monitoring and soon we'll switch their Imail product.

RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT - Server Watching.
I find that companies that will pay for Microsoft Exchange Server and Client licences (and other BackOffice products) wouldn't blink at the cost of MOM; and the pricing is staggered so that you can buy as much utility as you can realistically implement. What I find attractive is not the application management so much as the Event Log gathering and reporting. Weirdly enough, it's not the large shops that I've seen deploying MOM, but rather, it's the small to medium sized shops that don't have the in-house expertise and find MOM cheaper than outsourcing the high-end technologists. In particular, MOM providesthe basic "root cause analysis" that junior technologists lack, e.g. so that MOM can tell thehelp deskthat the webserver outage is really a DNS problem.

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] OT - Server Watching.
That's interesting. It seems though that from a knowledgeable administrator's point of view in a small business that this would be very expensive and wouldn't net any real return. Most small businesses that I know with up to 100 seats are very tight with their IT spending and go the route of outsourcing virtually all of their needs. Things are probably quite different in places like metro NYC, CA and WA as well as your neck of the woods. Although my own solution fits my needs, I did check out ipmonitor.com and it looks like a real nice product if you want to plunk down $995. This puts them in the more expensive category, but it looks like it does everything. There's even a "NOC View" (http://www.ipmonitor.com/network_monitoring/software/report.aspx).
