System/Network Administration Tools

Sorry for making this post so generic.

I'm trying to see if there are tools that exist that look at local network/system configurations and find problems... for example:
- NTP server configured that cannot be reached (can cause the system to drift because nobody is alerted to the fact that the NTP - that may have previously existed - is now gone)
- DNS server configured that cannot be reached (can cause connections into the system to incur extreme delays as a failed lookup attempt times out)
- etc...

Anyway, I was hoping that this kind of thing is something that there would already be a notification system available for...

Any ideas?
