Best web front end

A quick look at the NagioSQL web page gives me little confidence.  No
documentation or screenshots.
 
I've been playing with both Monarch and Fruity.  Both are (to me) Alpha
quality, regardless of any RC monnikers the developers attach to them.
 
I needed to patch both to make them usable:
 
Fruity: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1457860&group_
id=136248&atid=734752> &aid=1457860&group_id=136248&atid=734752
 
And also this patch to make services imported from Nagios 1.x configs
editable:

So far, I am not overly impressed, but Fruity shows promise.  Monarch is
way too slow.
 
Cheers,

Doesn't NagiosQL2005 dictate where you can install it and where nagios
should be installed ?  
I use /usr/local/nagios ... for my location but NagiosQL2005 seems to
want to force 
a certain directory structure which just would not work for me. 
 
It seems a little inflexible as there must be many nagios installs
whereby changing the structure
would just create far too much work just to get this working. 
 
Does anyone disagree here ? 
 
regards,
deborah

Hi 

Like Deborah says "This has been discussed to death. I'd suggest use
google and look around
to" 
I tried the Fruity, Nag2Web,NagiosQL and som other configtools 
But for "me" the best is NagiosQL - www.nagiosql.org 
It´s a php tool with mysql . very handy 
I serve about 2500 services and around 150 hosts with this tool and i
never had problems. 


I use NagiosQL 2005 http://www.nagiosQL.org and it works for our daily
job. 
It is easy to install and to configure. 
If you want to give it a try i can assist you with the configuration. 


Features 
are 

Import/export 
Easy navigation 
Backup function 
  
Give it a try 

Regards 

/Jörg

This has been discussed to death. I'd suggest use google and look around
to
see what is out there - try them out because
everyone has difference preferences to what will work for them. 

Alternatively, write your own and then you only have yourself to please!


:) 

regs,
deborah
