I like to use Groundwork Monitor Open Source which can include nagios (easy configuration) and cacti to graph. You can add tabs for cacti in groudwork which has nagios in the install.

Groundwork Monitor Open Source is an "easy" way to use Nagios. Another great solution is NeDi, http://www.nedi.ch, for network discovery and configuration management.

We've invested quite some time and resources into ZenOss, it sure beats Nagios as a monitoring (etc) platform.

baffle,

I'd love to hear your comparison/contrast of Nagios and ZenOss. I'm not familiar with ZenOss.

Nagios seems to be the winner here. How many of you use some of the many web UIs for configuring it? Eg: http://www.debianhelp.co.uk/nagiosweb.htm

I'd be also interrested to hear about that! Im sort of new to it, I never trust in webbased administration tasks but I guess it could work for a "basic" nagios installation? would be also interresting to see a followup post on that if its "common" what I dont know.

mhm.... beer after work
