If you want to do things yourself, check into MRTG and/or rrdtool. Their websites and mailing lists are full of scripts to monitor all sorts of stuff--or at least suggestions on how to do so. You'll still end of reinventing a lot, but sometimes even the open source projects can't meet everyone's needs.

So, excluding self-education, why re-invent the wheel if you don't need to. George On Monday, January 6, 2003, at 11:46 AM, Paul Kraus wrote: > You could do it with Perl.
