Jim- Personally, I like Nagios because you can make it monitor literally -anything-.
In a previous life, we had it monitoring the server room door. If it was open for more than ~5 minutes, it "nagged" us. Then again, it all depends on how much you care. For me, these days caring doesn't happen often so I'd probably use The Dude. ;-) -chris Jim Patient wrote: > I'm having a hard time understanding why yawl just wouldn't use the > Dude?
