Monitor Your Network Traffic with Cacti
-
LinuxUser & Developer has an article to help you get started with Cacti for network monitoring. Could make for a great weekend Linux project!
-
Sweet! Thanks for posting!
-
You are very welcome!
-
It's not a very good tutorial, FYI.
-
It wasn't a good tutorial but I installed and configured Cacti. It is monitoring/graphing a few of my servers right now. The graphs look really cool, now I just need to figure out a good way to pull them out and display them.
-
I really wish that Cacti would take some time and move to a prettier interface. It looks so dated.

I have to second this, I suggest trying both before putting a lot of effort into one or the other, or just try both because it's fun!
