network monitor portal

[Neil]

Hey guys, 

I have done similar things before and it is currently running. I modified my 
nagios in such a way interval is 15seconds. If you look at my April 4 
log(topmost), http://restricted.dyndns.org, you will see the screenshot of 
vmstat being plotted as a graph by rrdtool. The scripts I have there are old 
and have converted them to perl since I wanted more flexibility when doing 
math. I have also done another script which grabs ping response time from 
one node to another host(not the regular nagios ping plugin), parse the 
output of ping, and have the data sent to rrd, then plot it. It's awesome. 
Right now, everything is manually written but I am used to it. :) 

Once I find time, I will write a php frontend for it. 

just my 2 cents...
