Monitoring remote server
Hi,
we have recently gotten our web server set up running Debian slink (What a
joy!). I was wondering what the easiest way would be to monitor the
server and get an email and/or page if the server goes down. I have seen some
tools that are available in potato (one of them being "bigbrother"), but I would
not like to "experiment" on a web server serving 2.000.000 hits a week
installing from unstable. The easiest would maybe be to run something on my
workstation (Debian potato) that monitors the web server (the web server is
only accessable for me over the Internet, no lan etc....).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
TIA
