Seems odd that they have 2 different nagiosguis. Any reason you choose one over the other?Both Monarch and Fruity are web-based configuration management tools for Nagios.  Monarch (MONitor ARCHitecture) is integrated into GroundWork Open Source, which was released last month.  GroundWork "inherited" Fruity when Fruity developer Taylor Dondich joined GroundWork last year.Why choose one over the other?*  Monarch is probably the better choice for the experienced Nagios user: it has advanced features such as the ability to convert existing Nagios 1.x config files to 2.x.: http://sourceforge.net/projects/monarch*  Fruity is simpler to use, and is probably the better choice for the new Nagios user:  however, it only supports Nagios 1.x at the moment: http://sourceforge.net/projects/fruityBoth can be used stand-alone: that is, Monarch works with Nagios even if you choose not to implement the rest of GroundWork Open Source.HTH, -PeterPeter MuiOpen Source Community AdvocateGroundWork Open Source139 Townsend Street, Suite 100San Francisco, CA 94107[EMAIL PROTECTED]+1 415 992 4573

You must be mistaken.. fruity only supports nagios 2.x, from the fruity 
1.0 rc1 Install.txt


REQUIREMENTS:
Nagios v2.0
- Nagios v1.x support is no longer supported.
- You can import v1.x configs, however.

Both can be used stand-alone: that is, Monarch works with Nagios even if 
you choose not to implement the rest of GroundWork Open Source.
