You can get an fedora 10 rpm of it and edit it to recompile it on RHEL5/centos5 easily as the plugins for nagios seem to be forward/backwards compatable)) * OpenNMS (I know the Networking group at LSU uses this or did when I worked there) * Zabbix * Cacti (for if you just want an something that that is a front end of RRDtool to replace mrtg / ganglia) I would have to recommend that is you are running a large network to take a look at OpenNMS though I honestly have not had to deal with it for over a year now. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
