Giger didn't just "help make a film": he was a painter and sculptor of rare talent, one who could make recognizable (and very odd) artworks. He will be missed (by some, including me) as much as Dali is / was.

Me too! I don't miss Dali either!

What has the occupied territory got to do with this?

Well the whole situation there does seem somewhat surreal...

HR Giger[^]
I presume he was not chased down dark tunnels before having an embryonic crab face rape him and implant an egg...

Well, said, Lord Dave of Dalek,
Giger's thanatoptic art held up a clammy mirror to the necrophiliac darkness of the age of terror's hyper-sexualized violence-obsessed popular culture, with its eroticization of weapons, its ever younger-and-younger anorexic models simulating the metaphor of prepubescence corrupted.
In other words, he was a weird old perv, but his art can really help you get into morbid, if that's yo' thang.
cheers, Bill

I have always thought that being an artist was the best way for a pervert to remain unquestioned.

As Celtic Frost, who used his art for CD covers, already shouted "Are you morbid!?" (I think the song is 'Morbid Tales')

I have this idle Linux server standing around, which I will use to test several stuff (Web Service, EMail etc.).
I want something that let's me monitor the following things (preferably an email report is sent, too):
- Average CPU/RAM usage
- Network Traffic [Requestor IP, etc]
- Started/Stopped processes
- Remote Logins
- Anything requiring root
Anyone been there?

You may have a look at Nagios, which is a complete monitoring solution.
It can be installed alongside with a graphical configuration web interface named Centreon.
There is also a pre-made distribution called FAN (Fully Automated Nagios), which I recommend you to use if you never installed any Nagios before.
Hope this helps. Here are the links:

True, False, ForSure, Maybe, ProbablyNot, Depends, NotDecidedYet, Undefined
}
private interface IStealth { }

I wish to register a complaint!
When I followed your links to Nagios, I was expecting this[^]
And what did I find? Nothing like it!

Yes, a normal symptom for someone visiting the Lounge every day  Last week, I found myself astonished not to see the CodeProject's logo on a bottle of gin.

All of those things are separate commands...it would be pretty easy to combine them all into a script which dumps its output to a file and emails it to you on a regular basis.

An even better solution: make it all dump to an HTML file on it's own web server which you can browse from your mobile to see how your server is doing...password protect the directory, of course...

I'm there right now, using CentOS. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of bloated, sissy-fied solutions that do everything and toast bread too. Not for my servers. I want lean and mean and performance. As stated, you can do all of this just using a shell script, a few commands, and sendmail. Shell scripts are easy enough to learn since it's the same exact thing as using the shell / prompt in interactive mode, except you save it to an executable text file and run it.

I'm on debian, and I as it looks now, I will probably go for the shell script idea.

SNMP is the name and http://oss.oetiker.ch/mrtg/[^] Tobi oetiker's tool MRTG can probably help. He is Swiss btw.
Otherwise there are several useful SNMP libraries that you can use to build apps.
I have build a suite of tools for all kinds of monitoring, but they are company's property and cannot share them.
