Installing the Hobbit monitor on lenny

Hobbit monitors your hosts, your network services, and anything else you configure it to do via extensions. Hobbit can periodically generate requests to network services - http, ftp, smtp and so on - and record if the service is responding as expected. You can also monitor local disk utilisation, logfiles and processes through the use of agents installed on the servers.

Before you install, make sure you have Apache web server installed.

1. Install hobbit packages

apt-get install hobbit hobbit-client hobbit-plugins
