[clue-tech] Want recommendations for monitoring webpages and servers

[Whiting, Gary]

I still like BigBrother. I use an old version (1.9, pre-Quest Software ownership) because it still does what I need it to. I'm not sure about licensing anymore. You can monitor straight server up/down based on ping response or you can add services like ftp, http, etc. All without a client. Install the client agent and you can get even more info.

We tried OpenNMS for a little while and it work well, too.

I see that Nagios has a free version for monitoring up to 7 hosts.
I have 20 websites on one server at ixwebhosting.  What would CLUE suggest ?
