I'm looking for some best practices/how to info. Yes, I have the admin guide. 
Yes, I have been searching the mailing list/forum archive. I just need a little 
helping hand getting going. Trying to optimize my effort.

I have setup Zenoss, 2.2.4 on a Debian box, outside of my network. I have 
managed to get logged, change the password, created additional users, and add 
my locations so far. I am not interested in auto discovery. 

I want to monitor several services as well as hardware statistics on servers at 
the corp offices. I've downloaded the Zenpacks I need for that. Installing them 
next. 

I want to monitor a few different services on the linux servers at each job 
site as well the verify the VPN tunnel to the corp network is connected. My VPN 
appliances (WatchGuard) does not do snmp, just syslog apparently.

I really wish the default install of Zenoss came with some bogus config data. 
Make it a lot easier to get going with some examples.

Currently I am using Nagios but I am also looking at OpenNMS, Hyperic, and 
Groundwork. I'm leaning towards Zenoss due to the Google Maps interface. 
Specifically because it is an easy to understand interface for the Senior VP, 
Pres/CEO to use.

Any advise for someone new?
