Nagios install on CentOS 5
There are a ton of sites/ HOWTOs, examples out there, this is just a reminder of the damn RPM necessary packages to get the Nagios up & running in no time on a CentOS 5 boxen.
All the packages (that can not be installed via yum) are from DAG
fping is the only dependency that has not other one but itself, and perl(Net::SNMP) is the one that has all the other ones.
After the install, Nagios' configuration files will be on '/etc/nagios/' (with a ready made minimalist configuration on the file 'localhost.cfg') and the check plugins will reside on '/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/'.
There will be also the web access configuration file on '/etc/httpd/conf.d/mrtg.conf'.
The Nagios RPM sets itself to start automagically on RunLevels 3,4,5.

Can anyone recommend the well-priced MSP utility for a small IT service company like mine? Does anyone use Kaseya.com or GFI.com? How do they compare to these guys I found recently: N-able N-central remote pc
? What is your best take in cost vs performance among those three? I need a good advice please... Thanks in advance!
