This is slightly OT, but I'm really interested in getting input from the list
on monitoring software.  I've been out of IT for almost 4 years dealing with
some pretty serious medical issues (6 surgeries on my feet in 20 months along
with elbow and knee surgeries) and I want to see how much has changed.
Before I left IT I used Nagios and BB for network monitoring, but want to see
if there is anything new that could replace those in my arsenal or are they
still some of the elite software out there.

Things change so fast in IT, I want to be sure I'm up to date on all the
options and opinions on those options from those who weren't on a sabbatical.
 I would appreciate any input you might have.

BB is dead. Quest killed it, however have a look at http://xymon.org/ and you
will see that it looks a lot like BB except that it has been rewritten and
improved. One of the nice things about xymon is that if you have extensions
that worked with BB they will most likely work with xymon.

I am a big fan of xymon because it is easy to configure and works very well.

HTH,
