you wanted network monitoring. So, that means no processes on the servers, only the monitoring system. The example monitors a ton of different things(including my experimental samba-tng PDC) and everything is monitored from 1 machine. You can spread the load out, but its not needed. > Or can I just run Snips as a standalone on my Debian box, having it > ping/etc the Windows and Linux servers that I need to check that are not > within my network? you can run it on a standalone box(what i do). It works well, I've been using SNIPS since september, and NOCOL(earlier "version" of SNIPS for about 3 years now). I suppose the only downside to it is the mailing list is not active, but if you have an issue I can try to help with it. It's pretty easy to use. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
