Description:
My project is to develop a complete monitoring tool for UNIX systems, being 
able to monitor a whole network from a single machine, working on the 
client/server style. As the data the project would work with important data, a 
cryptographic framework would take care of it. The plan is to develop our own 
protocol, but also supporting SNMP as an option. The idea behind monitoring a 
network is to fit its components on profiles such as \"webserver\", \"mail 
server\", etc - so that the utility would be able to \"think\" (a small IA 
code) about the specific component situation, and warn the administrator or 
even take some decisions in order to make the component working. Initially, it 
would act as a ncurses-based tool (the client side), but a GUI wouldn\'t be bad 
at all.

It is 100% made on the C language and already exists and works only under 
OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD at the moment. You can get it at
