in reply to SNMP

I really enjoyed the output of NetSNMP.org's snmptranslate -Tp

Of course I had to install/configure Net-SNMP first, but it was worth it so that I knew exactly which MIBs my host knew about in a heirarchical fashion.

Now I just need to spend more time looking for a pure-Perl solution to implementing process monitoring w/notifications and/or restarts, and the methods used to report on configured MIBs. The prior is most important to me though, if any of you have scripts to monitor processes/processes involved in cron jobs.

Thanks for those links, guys and many thanks for the initial post.
