Check out nagios and/or cacti. Cacti and Nagios uses snmp, I believe
and nagios is quite extensive and flexible IMO. Not sure if it is
overkill for your needs or hard to setup but I used it for my 13+
home systems. Quite nice and it lets me know immediately if a
system is down or if resources are being depleted. You can use
pagers and email notification and perhaps send a message to your
cell phone.

Thanks, Dan, for the info. However, I believe those programs would be
overkill.
So far, the program I am most intrigued in are bigbrother and mon.
Does anyone have any information on how to obtain, install, and configure
mon?
