Due to the recent surge of interest in porting ZFS to the Linux kernel (if you are in the mood to read dozens of messages, see this thread, the follow-up, plus this one and one more), I'd like to offer my view on things.
What is Zenoss?
The Zenoss project provides an integrated, easy-to-deploy and cost-effective opensource alternative for enterprise IT infrastructure monitoring. Unlike the big OSS companies (IBM, HP, CA, BMC, Amdocs) we are able to keep costs down and directly involve end users throughout the world. More details can be found here.
zCI is a free computer inventory system. zCI collects inventory data from client computers automatically and store the information in MySQL database server. You can manage and play the inventory data using zCI’s sleek web-based interface.
These are some of zCI’s interesting features:
* Automatically collect hardware information, such as computer serial number, monitor serial number, CPU type, harddisk information, memory size & etc. Monitor serial number detection are rarely provided by other computer inventory programs.
* Automatically collect installed software information*.
* Client programs are available for MS Windows (JScript based) and Linux (Java based). Both client programs are less than 100KB and not necessary to be installed in the client computers. Linux client might be applicable for Unix systems.
* Server-side programs can be installed on any OS and hardware platform. zCI server only needs web-server, PHP and MySQL database.
* Data management can be done via zCI’s web-based interface with 3 access levels (all users, supervisor and administrator).
* Peripheral inventory facility. Other computer inventory software usually does not provide this facility.
* Ownership management. You can manage the ownership status (owned, lease, end of ownership, end of lase) of computer, monitor and peripheral entities.
Here's a dirty script I wrote to install nagios and Lilac on a clean CentOS 5.4 install. This script doesn't care about anyone other than itself (it'll change the mysql password for instance) so may not be entirely perfect for your needs.

In diesem Dokument will ich die Installation eines DSpam-Servers "from scratch" beschreiben.
Der Server soll hierbei einen vollwertigen Mailserver darstellen, d.h. SMTP, POP3 und IMAP4 anbieten.
WiCoPro is a Client/Server suite designed to allow logging off, powering off and rebooting of the remote computers. The client, available under Linux and Windows, is written in python. The WiCoPro suite includes several modules : the client, the object server, intended to distribute the machines and the places, the web console allowing the administrator to operate on the machines, the communications server to establish the connection between the client and the various modules, and an executor allowing to launch tasks via a cron job.
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 9726. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
RESTORE was developed by Holonyx Ruffdogs and is a free, open source, enterprise network backup and recovery solution for Windows, Novell, Mac OS X (data fork), Unix and Linux systems. RESTORE is scalable to a complete backup solution for multiple workstations, servers, and data centers. It operates over local area networks, wide area networks, and the Internet. Holonyx Ruffdogs is placing RESTORE into the open-source community.
What is web2ldap?
* A generic LDAPv3 client which does not make any assumptions about the tree structure or LDAP schema.
* Kind of a swiss-army knife for accessing/manipulating LDAP servers without having to configure anything.
* A secure LDAP client with clean login behaviour.
* A schema browser which displays references/dependencies within an LDAPv3 schema.
* For me it is a platform for implementing cutting edge LDAP features.
* Continously maintained software.
You can use Keynote Red Alert to monitor your domain name servers, FTP servers, SMTP email servers, POP3 servers, IMAP servers, NNTP news servers, Telnet servers, Web servers and other critical Internet devices around the clock. If any device fails based

Learn how to use the Service Management Facility -- a new, unified model for services and service management that is included in the Solaris Operating System.
Unison runs on both Windows and many flavors of Unix (Solaris, Linux, OS X, etc.) systems. Moreover, Unison works across platforms, allowing you to synchronize a Windows laptop with a Unix server, for example.
Unison is a file-synchronization tool for Unix and Windows. It allows two replicas of a collection of files and directories to be stored on different hosts (or different disks on the same host), modified separately, and then brought up to date by propagating the changes in each replica to the other.
UNetbootin allows you to create bootable Live USB drives for a variety of Linux distributions from Windows or Linux, without requiring you to burn a CD. You can either let it download one of the many distributions supported out-of-the-box for you, or supply your own Linux .iso file if you've already downloaded one or your preferred distribution isn't on the list.
Our experienced Administrators know how to not only fix your SysAdmin problems, but also to prevent them from happening in the first place. We'd rather you never had an outage, than to be heroes fixing an outage that could have been prevented.
KernSafe TotalMounter is an advanced and powerful virtual CD/DVD-ROM/RW/RAM emulator, and it is full-featured free software for windows. TotalMounter is also a free full-featured iSCSI initiator, virtual disks emulator, and a client of INetDisk. Its goal is to mount everything, you can not only mount a CD/DVD images (such as iso, bin, cdi, mdf, ccd, nrg) as a virtualized drive, and also make these images by creating a CD/DVD-RW virtualized drive and burning data into it by burning software. Additionally, KernSafe TotalMounter has also provide virtual write technology into iSCSI Initiator and INetDisk Client, so that you can copy files into a read-only drive and do not affect the other peoples.
After the tremendously successful 2000 and 2003 security tools surveys, Insecure.Org is delighted to release this 2006 survey. I (Fyodor) asked users from the nmap-hackers mailing list to share their favorite tools, and 3,243 people responded. This allowe
Installing Solaris Every once in a while -- every year or two, as it happens -- I need to install Solaris on a SPARC machine here at home. From a Linux server. This, you might think, shouldn't be too hard a thing to do. And you'd be right: it's not. What is hard to do, however, is configure your Linux server correctly, as the various scripts and whatnot that Sun provide aren't entirely suited to the GNU tools, and have a tendency to break. Not good. So, here is a shortlist of issues you may face when attempting this. Google is not always helpful, and to save me the usual three hours or so it takes to work all this lot out again from first principles, here's a list of what goes wrong, how to fix it, and how to identify the problems.
The Lazy Admin (or TLA) is an Open Source remote management tool for system administrators. It can be used to gather live data about machines on your network for which you have administrator access to.
TLA also offers Active Directory tools, such as searching computers bound by name, searching for users by last name or log ID field.
Hobbit Monitor Welcome to the Hobbit Monitor project homepage. Hobbit is a system for monitoring servers and networks. It takes its inspiration from the Big Brother monitoring system, but unlike Big Brother it is designed to work well whether you need to monitor a small network with just a handful of hosts, or large networks with thousands of servers and network services. Hobbit is the successor to the bbgen toolkit, which has been available as an add-on to Big Brother since late 2002. The name change was decided upon when Hobbit acquired enough functionality to be a stand-alone product. The tools that formed the bbgen toolkit are still present in Hobbit and are quite important for it, so if you have used bbgen before Hobbit will seem quite familiar. What does Hobbit do ?
