I missed your original request with the requirements, but it sounds like
you are in need of a host monitoring solution.  I strongly reccomend
looking at BigBrother www.bb4.com .  It has an excellent web interface
to 'see' the health of your network and also has some nice paging
notification facilities in it as well.
