Hi,

I am supposed to create the website to perform some monitoring and management activities on unix server.

Activities includes cpu usage,displays currently runing processes,deleting files on the server and so on.

Please tell which is best web based language(.net or java) to develop the tasks which is like above specified.

and also tell whether can i use snmp to monitor unix server

Thank you

Why reinvent when there are plenty out there in open source...

Find one that suits you and use it, and if you are good at programming why not help the development by joining the team?

The best idea would be to use Opensource tool like Nagios - Nagios: Home it is very popular and widely used application. You don't need any specific progamming language.

All the activities that you have mentioned can be monitored from Nagios with graphs as well, it uses SNMP.

Exactly, I didnt want to influence on the choices...
And for example Nagios would be pleased to have new force participating in plug-in development...

i like this one better
The Hobbit Monitor

specially if you wanted to "develop" something
its made mostly of shells scripts. and can be expandded easly

Thank you for your replys.
broli.can we create the web application using shell script.
If we can, please give some idea to achieve this

if i use the snmp with .net combination to monitor , can i use .net to doing management activities such
as deleting files on the server. otherwise can i go for java with snmp
