Anyone use Big Brother? We have it setup on our system, but I was not the one who installed it, so i know nothing about it.

Question: on all servers besides the "primary" the services

cpu
disk
msgs
procs

are not reporting, what do i need to do to get these services reporting again? (main problem was the purple tornado, which after deleting the all the logs files, fixed that problem)

Have you checked that the BigBrother program is indeed started and running on the non-primary servers?

Have you checked that the non-primary servers has their BBDISPLAY set to the primary server?

Well, if you want to check on the things mentioned above (disk, msgs, cpu, etc.) - then you really need to install BigBrother on _all_ the servers...
