Hi all,

Can anyone tell me where can I get a free script that I can put into one server to monitor another server service in every few minutes?

Thanks

what do you want to monitor?

I want to create a simple service monitor , eg. http, mysql . which will send me an email / sms if the service is not available. this script will be located in a remote PC or server , running on cron, which will check on the remote server once every predefined period. Something like alertra, but very much light weight.

Seen something like that? I will have to do some customization on the sms and sending of email. But I am just not sure how the checking of the server service part of the code goes.
