[Cialug] Opensource Network Monitors

[Josh More]

I've been reviewing Nagios, Zenoss, Mon/Mon.cgi/Smokeping, and IBM
Director.  I'm not exactly thrilled with any of them.  I had considered
talking on this topic at Bar Camp this Saturday, but I'm concluding that
none of these are a really good path to success.

I propose that we get together and hash this issue out on Saturday and
at least raise some issues that folks have run into.

Looking for some input on network monitors.  So far I think Ive
narrowed
it down to 3.  We're looking to monitor mainly service availability
but
performance monitoring is a bonus.

Nagios
Zabbix
Zenoss

First, anyone actively using any of these?  pros and cons?
Second, is there one I missed?  I am open to suggestions.

Thanks.
