UNfortunately, not really. There's nmap, which is very very cool but no clicky clicky. It does produce XML output so there's an opportunity for something to piggyback on it. I don't know of any tools that do this though. However, I'm currently writing a frontend for Nagios for great justice, and the topic of automatic network scanning and monitoring interests me, so I may just well add nmap support to this tool. I'll remember to post here when I've got something useful to demonstrate. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://spacepants.org/jaq.gpg -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
