"installing and configuring Nagios in your office environment can easily make you look like a wizard to the powers that be." - If you can actually get it installed and configured. It is a VERY complex piece of software and you need to be pretty proficient with Linux to get the install done.

Peter,
Novell has an outstanding article on how to do it step by step at: http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/feature/16723.html
You can't go wrong.

Peter ... (kinda sales'y I know but) you could go with a service from TruePath http://www.truepathtechnologies.com/
They configure/manage the OpenSource software like Nagios for you! You get to use the tools/graphs and they manage the backend garbage. Not bad.

John - Thanks for the tip. I actually went back to the Nagios site. I hadn't been there in a while and I now see that they have a new version and some decent install guides. I'll have to give it another try.

What's with the new trend of blogs doing everything they possibly can to keep readers on their own site? How the shit hard would it have been to put a link to http://www.nagios.org/ up there?
