Hi,
1- A script was written which uses apache's ab tool to stress the
server. Script will run on the web-server host.
There is a tool available for benchmarking apache called: ab or ab2
which is apache benchmark to use it you simply issue:
./ab -n 1000 -c 100
http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/index.htm
The above will simulate 100 users accessing the website 1000 times

ZABBIX also uses the snmp-libs for the optional SNMP agents. I use
ZABBIX to monitor all of my servers and it suits me pretty nicely.
The ZABBIX web frontend is in PHP, just like Cacti's. See http://
www.zabbix.com/manual/v1.1/install_requirements_software.php for more
info on the software requirements for ZABBIX.
