Cacti is a graphing tool that will perform the same job as MRTG, but once you get it up and running it is entirely web-based and much friendlier for those that have few or no Linux/*BSD skills.
http://www.cacti.net/ If you use VMware ESX/ESXi for virtualization you can easily download a pre-made virtual machine that will get you up and running quickly: http://www.jumpbox.com/app/cacti Also, be aware that MRTG and Cacti are *graphing* solutions, not general purpose monitoring solutions. Any sort of altering is outside of the defined program scope.
