It's not quite that simple due to the requirement of rrdtool. I just tried to install xymon on RHEL and stumbled over rrdtool. I found that and installed it, but xymon still didn't find the include files. It has been a while since I installed Hobbit 4.2.0 on solaris (and this is my first attempt on a linux server), but I remember having similar issues there, too. You have to install rrdtool first, know where the libraries and the include files are and then when you do the configure for xymon you might have to point it to those things.

I use CentOS quite a bit. RHEL should be interchangeable. Try this guide: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/System_Monitoring_with_Xymon/Administration_Guide/Compiling_on_CentOS

Have you started building yet and are stuck, or are you just asking if it is possible? If your stuck provide some details. Are you planning on installing on Solaris 10? If so, child zone or global? SPARC or x86? There are some caveats that you may run into but this should be possible. I would stick with gnu tools for building though. You may need to add several packages, either from source or use sunfreeware pkgs. As for SMS, graphs, etc. that is all in the documents.

Yeah, we should endeavor to be helpful to newcomers (although not spoon-feed them) whenever they come by. We could have answers like that on darned near any Linux forum out there, but we should at least try and be helpful. How about some sites? How about the wiki which specifically covers Solaris installations? Here's some Solaris goo: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/System_Monitoring_with_Xymon/Administration_Guide#Solaris_11.2F06_U3_on_Sun_hardware And some helpful sites: Xymon <http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/System_Monitoring_with_Hobbit>; Deadcat <http://www.deadcat.net/>; MRTG <http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/docs/hobbit-mrtg.html>; Hobbit Tips and Tricks<http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/docs/hobbit-tips.html>; Man Pages <http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/docs/man-index.html>; Xymonton <http://xymonton.trantor.org/doku.php>; Windows Goodness <http://system.keilir.net/windows.html>; Hobbiton <http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/>; Come on... we're better than that. --- Jerald M.

The helpful sites are great once you have the server installed, but I suggest the Xymon website (look in the drop down menus) to begin.

In Josh's defense, it looked like a spoon-feed request. He's generally pretty helpful to noobs who ask questions with any thought behind them. My inclination was to refer the OP to: http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html I also harked back to another mailing list, in a previous century, and the question "How do I configure the best firewall?". The goofery and ridicule went on for days, including pictures of wirecutters. You're probably a better person than I am.

There's also the obvious language thing, too. I usually wait until the second "just hand it to me" before I let someone have it. :) Honestly, I'm not all that much better, but I like to give someone a fighting chance before I decide to execute a drive-by RTFM. :) --- Jerald M.
