I like the idea of having a hobbit server inside a DMZ just to monitor the servers inside the DMZ. I am sure that between the network firewalls and the iptables and other tools available in a Linux server, that you can make sure that the public cannot see the hobbit server but let admins inside your network see the web pages. Alerts might be more of a problem but should be doable with proper firewall rules. The bbproxy facility may make it easier to get the firewall stuff set right.

Hi,
I would like to monitor servers inside a DMZ. Since the Hobbit-Clients push the information to the server, they are not able reach the LAN Hobbit server : communication from the DMZ to the LAN is forbidden...
What is your experience in that area guys ?
I'm thinking to setup a DMZ Hobbit server. The LAN Hobbit server will pull the information from the DMZ Hobbit server. I remember something related using bbproxy or NET. Am I right ? What is your experience in that domain again ? (bis)
Finally, I would like to setup a Hobbit Server in "LAN2", "LAN3" and "LAN4" . Those LAN* Hobbit server will monitor servers around them. Will they send information to LAN Hobbit server or the LAN Hobbit server will pull the information from LAN* Hobbit servers ?
Thanks by advance for any answers or point of view of my ideas. I'm looking for a global view of my issues + tutorial links to setup the right things.
Thanks by advance.
