I noted that jicmp and rrd were packaged separately, but I was using SLES, so had the experience of running into dependency issues, which the goal posts shifted as I got one thing in place. SLES is not that well catered for, tried doing down the compiling route. Debian might be a better option. From Novell background so try stick to that distro where possible. Did not bother with snmp as I didn't like the OpenNMS interface and functionality. I'm looking for a solution that more rounded then this product... I don't do network mgt for a living, it's just a tool. I use it on CentOS and would sort-of expect the rpms to work on SLES but perhaps not via the yum installer. I don't understand what you mean by 'rounded'. If you want to monitor routers/switches along with hosts you are pretty much stuck with snmp, like it or not, and if you weren't using snmp you didn't see much of what OpenNMS actually does. A lot of the interesting stuff is in the 'resource graphs' section with histories of the values reported by snmp (for example, I see MS HTTP requests per second graphed with out-of-the-box defaults other than installing snmp on the windows hosts). OpenNMS is definitely complicated and overkill for many uses, but it is very configurable. But, let us know if you find anything that magically just does what you want. -- Les Mikesell [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
