Good morning:

I run Red Hat Linux and Mapserver 3.5, I was wondering if any of you =
could point me to some free server monitoring software (PERL, C, C++).  =
I run the UNIX command `top` every now and again to see how long my =
processes take and how much memory, but I'm looking for something =
automated and configurable-not me sitting and watching processes float =
to the top of the process control manager.

Basically I want to make a process that continually monitors the web =
related processes (maybe by username or command), printing a process log =
similar to the apache logs.  This process-watcher might kill process =
that use to much memory, then write the process information to a log so =
that I could review the culprit processes and how they were =
instantiated.  The more I think about this email, its probably already a =
module for Apache--any feedback would be appreciated.

I know this a mapping community, I apologize to anyone who disagrees =
with the context, but I know we are all concerned about web server =
performance.

Thank you for your time.

Steve Lehr
