However I have a slight problem in understanding something, to which I am sure I'm not alone. Basically the above tasks are easy to implement, such as updating the commands.cfg (which on Debian BTW, is linux-commands.cfg), and linux-services.cfg. The problem I have is that this script is looking for the actual plugin and although I've downloaded it (Nagios check_sip plugin v1.2), I don't know where to install it. I've tried putting it in /usr/src/nagios-plugins-1.4.13/plugins (this is because the plugin file (Nagios check_sip plugin v1.2) contains a simple script. Is it possible for you to add the steps to actually install the plugin please? or am I totally on the wrong track altogether? I'm sure that once that is shown, it would help many other people including me ;) Hi Peter, great site! and great article.

Is there room for all of them on the market, my guess is NO! No I have not tried them. I’m totally amazed of all these different softwares that try to solve the same issues.

I searched the web and discovered the following: Kaseya.com Logmein.com They all look different... Does anyone has experience with any of them? In addition did anybody else try that software: <a href="http://it.n-able.com/" rel="nofollow">N-able IT automation software</a> ? Any ideas on the newest Network Management system freeware?
