I just wanted to point out that he specifically said 'easy to configure'.  Nagios - while it is understandable, logical, etc.  Is not -easy- to config.  Even when you are experienced, it seems to require time.  I am not arguing anything about it's ability, etc.  I am simply saying, it's not easy to pick up and configure.  

This is a test.

thanks,
