Don't give up.  It is actually very easy to get running on a red hat or
fedora based system (prefers centos here).  It took me forever to get it
running the first time because I kept missing stuff in the manual.  If you
follow the directions it can be up and running in about 10 minutes.  You
might also look into groundwork open source.  It is already packaged and has
its own config tools.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Nagios Light?

After trying to work with Nagios for a while, I've determined that it's 
not the best fit for most of the environments I work with. Looks like 
great stuff, but takes too long to setup, configure, and get running in 
network environments where I would leave it with administrators will 
little to no linux knowledge.

Is there something linux-based that would be comparable to "nagios 
light"? Thanks for any input.
