Redundancy has something good, sometimes... ;-)

That's a very good all-in-one collection of OS admin sites. I've been reading about Nagios http://www.nagios.org/ for monitoring our Domino web servers. It doesn't look like anyone has written an add-on to monitor NRPC with Nagios (yet), but I'm really only interested in HTTP. It sounds like Nagios will run on a cheap Linux box, watch for HTTP to not respond in your parameters and page/e-mail you if something is wrong. I haven't had much luck getting Domino's monitoring to tell me when HTTP isn't responding.
