Following some post on the web, I was interested in munin. After some fights with perl, and almost giving up! Got it somehow working on my home server. Which recently was as well relieved from routing packets 😉 thanks to my new Linksys WRT54g.

Munin is prety good tool for graphs. It is using RRD Tool to its plotting. It has system of plug-ins which turned to be extremely easy, when I was debugging some of the graphs not showing any data. It works nice with local resources, as well as with SNMP ( I have to add this part to pull date from my border router ). Did I mentioned, plug-ins are really easy to write!
