That is not that easy!

a) As a Debian user you need to add

   deb ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/debian/ unstable main non-free 
contrib

   to a fresh (if you dont wanna have always unstable package, p.s.
   backup your old one!) /etc/apt/apt.conf and then you do

   apt-get install monit

   or do

   apt-get -t unstable install monit

   if you have a multi-distro enabled apt-get configuration with "unstable"
   aka. "sid" already inside.

   That how I would do it on my i386/sparc debian machines.  I just
   looked... it comes with a monitrc in /etc/monit/ and an appropriate
   /etc/init.d monit.

b) If you can't do a)... (that works around everything of Debian's
   packaging concept...)

   Look into...

   ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/monit/

   there you find:

     monit_2.4-1.diff.gz
     monit_2.4-1.dsc
     monit_2.4-1_arm.deb
     monit_2.4.orig.tar.gz
     monit_2.5-1.diff.gz
     monit_2.5-1.dsc
     monit_2.5-1_alpha.deb
     monit_2.5-1_hppa.deb
     monit_2.5-1_i386.deb
     monit_2.5-1_ia64.deb
     monit_2.5-1_m68k.deb
     monit_2.5-1_mips.deb
     monit_2.5-1_mipsel.deb
     monit_2.5-1_powerpc.deb
     monit_2.5-1_s390.deb
     monit_2.5-1_sparc.deb
     monit_2.5.orig.tar.gz

Bye,
