Linux remote monitoring

Hi All,

Are there any applications in linux that allow remote monitoring of a
small bunch of systems. I am looking for monitoring overall CPU loads
and networkusage for the most part. It would be cool if I could also
monitor CPU temps but that's not essential.

I use gkrellm for exactly that. Have a gkrellm daemon on each machine
to be monitored, and run gkrellm --server hostname on the machine
you're using for monitoring (with 'hostname' replaced by the name of
each host, of course).

Thanks. Looks like exactly what I need.
