Hi,

An interesting project http://nagiosadmin.de

It works with an mysql db. Dependencies are php5 and some php5 libs.

Pro:
- easy to install
- simpel to handle/configure hosts and services (for admins without linux/nagios knowledgement)
- languarge could be changed in the webconsole (german and english)
- host services could be configured with one click. I think they scann for open ports on the host. 

Neg:
- You have to build up you nagios system one more time. Existing nagios cfgs can't be imported
- Timeperiods and Dependancies must be modified throu console. It is not implementet (I don't know if it would be in future)
- The configuration will be saved to the mysqldb, so you can't go back.

Thats my opinion/"experience" with that program. I have installed it in my nagios playground and configured it with some sample hosts and services.
I can't tell anything about performance in big installations.

Steffen

Betreff: [Nagios-users] Any GUI Configuration tool for Nagios 3.xrecommendations?

Hello

The last time I asked the list about this, there was very little response, so I'm going to ask again.

I'd like to ask list members for their recommendations for front end GUIs for configuring Nagios 3.x.

The Lilac Platform (http://www.lilacplatform.com/) looks interesting but its dependency list is putting me off at the moment.

What else is good for Nagios 3.0.3 and upwards?

Command line is fine but I keep thinking that there must be more interesting ways to spend the day ;)

Also I'd like to know that if I change my mind and don't want to use the GUI any more, that my original Nagios data (cfg files) will still be left in a usable form.

If no-one's interested this time, I promise to drop the subject.

Thanks

Ian Masters
