I have used MRTG before to monitor some data like the uptime of my DSL link. But since its quite hard to configure I have been looking for other tools.

Today there was some discussion of bandwidth monitoring on the BF1942-linux_server mailinglist. Also monitoring game server statistics would be interesting. People on the list recommended the following tools:
– Cacti – BWBar – NTop

From before I have been recommended to look at Cricket that seems to use ”>RRDTool as Cacti does to. No its just decide which one to use:-)
