| arpwatch 2.1a13 | BSD | Network monitoring tools for tracking IP addresses on the network |
| The arpwatch package contains arpwatch and arpsnmp. Arpwatch and arpsnmp are both network monitoring tools.

| gkrellm 2.2.9 | GPL | Multiple stacked system monitors |
| GKrellM charts SMP CPU, load, Disk, and all active net interfaces automatically. An on/off button and online timer for the PPP interface is provided. Monitors for memory and swap usage, file system, internet connections, APM laptop battery, mbox style mailboxes, and cpu temps. Also includes an uptime monitor, a hostname label, and a clock/calendar. Additional features are: * Autoscaling grid lines with configurable grid line resolution. * LED indicators for the net interfaces. * A gui popup for configuration of chart sizes and resolutions. | ||
| gps 1.1.0 | GPL | Another task manager applet |
| gPS is a task manager applet for Linux, based on gtk+. It shows a graphical list of processes like ps and top. gPS reads data directly from the /proc filesystem. It allows the user to filter and sort te process list on any field, to kill processes with SIGHUP and SIGKILL signals and to renice processes. | ||
| iplog 2.2.3 | GPL | Logs TCP, UDP, and ICMP connections to syslog. |
| iplog is a TCP/IP traffic logger. Currently, it is capable of logging TCP, UDP and ICMP traffic. Adding support for other protocols should be relatively easy. iplog contains a built-in packet filter, allowing for logging or excluding packets that fit a given set of criteria. | ||
| lslk 1.29 | GPL style | A lock file lister |
| Lslk is a lock file lister. Lslk attempts to list all of the locks on the executing system's local files (i.e., on the active inodes). Install lslk if you need a utility for listing file locks. | ||
| lsof 4.76 | Free | Lists files open by processes |
| Lsof's name stands for LiSt Open Files, and it does just that. It lists information about files that are open by the processes running on a UNIX system. | ||
| procinfo 18 | GPL | A tool for gathering and displaying system information. |
| The procinfo command gets system data from the /proc directory (the kernel filesystem), formats it and displays it on standard output. You can use procinfo to acquire information about your system from the kernel as it is running. Install procinfo if you'd like to use it to gather and display system data. | ||
| procps 3.2.6 | GPL | Utilities for monitoring your system and processes on your system |
| The procps package contains a set of system utilities which provide system information. Procps includes ps, free, skill, snice, tload, top, uptime, vmstat, w and watch. * The ps command displays a snapshot of running processes. * The top command provides a repetitive update of the statuses of running processes. * The free command displays the amounts of free and used memory on your system. * The skill command sends a terminate command (or another specified signal) to a specified set of processes. * The snice command is used to change the scheduling priority of specified processes. * The tload command prints a graph of the current system load average to a specified tty. * The uptime command displays the current time, how long the system has been running, how many users are logged on and system load averages for the past one, five and fifteen minutes. * The w command displays a list of the users who are currently logged on and what they're running. * The watch program watches a running program. * The vmstat command displays virtual memory statistics about processes, memory, paging, block I/O, traps and CPU activity. | ||
| psacct 6.3.2 | GPL | Utilities for monitoring process activities |
| The psacct package contains several utilities for monitoring process activities, including ac, lastcomm, accton and sa. The ac command displays statistics about how long users have been logged on. The lastcomm command displays information about previous executed commands. The accton command turns process accounting on or off. The sa command summarizes information about previously executed commmands. Install the psacct package if you'd like to use its utilities for monitoring process activities on your system. | ||
| psmisc 22.2 | GPL | Utilities for managing processes on your system |
| The psmisc package contains utilities for managing processes on your system: pstree, killall and fuser. The pstree command displays a tree structure of all of the running processes on your system. The killall command sends a specified signal (SIGTERM if nothing is specified) to processes identified by name. The fuser command identifies the PIDs of processes that are using specified files or filesystems. | ||
| rusers 0.17 | BSD | Displays the users logged into machines on the local network |
| The rusers program allows users to find out who is logged into various machines on the local network. The rusers command produces output similar to who, but for the specified list of hosts or for all machines on the local network. Install rusers if you need to keep track of who is logged into your local network. | ||
| swatch 3.1.1 | GPL | A utility for monitoring system logs files. |
| The Swatch utility monitors system log files, filters out unwanted data and takes specified actions (i.e., sending email, executing a script, etc.) based upon what it finds in the log files. Install the swatch package if you need a program that will monitor log files and alert you in certain situations. | ||
| tcpdump 3.9.4 | BSD | A network traffic monitoring tool |
| Tcpdump is a command-line tool for monitoring network traffic. Tcpdump can capture and display the packet headers on a particular network interface or on all interfaces. Tcpdump can display all of the packet headers, or just the ones that match particular criteria. Install tcpdump if you need a program to monitor network traffic. | ||
| time 1.7 | GPL | A GNU utility for monitoring a program's use of system resources |
| The GNU time utility runs another program, collects information about the resources used by that program while it is running and displays the results. Time can help developers optimize their programs. The resources that `time' can report on fall into the general categories of time, memory, I/O, and IPC calls. The GNU version can format the output in arbitrary ways by using a printf-style format string to include various resource measurements. | ||
| traceroute 1.4a12 | BSD | Traces the route taken by packets over a TCP/IP network. |
| The traceroute utility displays the route used by IP packets on their way to a specified network (or Internet) host. Traceroute displays the IP number and host name (if possible) of the machines along the route taken by the packets. Traceroute is used as a network debugging tool. If you're having network connectivity problems, traceroute will show you where the trouble is coming from along the route. Install traceroute if you need a tool for diagnosing network connectivity problems. | ||
| xcpustate 2.5 | MIT-style | An X Window System based CPU state monitor |
| The xcpustate utility is an X Window System based monitor which shows the amount of time that the CPU is spending in different states. On a Linux system, xcpustate displays a bar that indicates the amounts of idle, user, nice and system time (from left to right) used by the CPU. Install the xcpustate package if you'd like to use a horizontal bar style CPU state monitor. | ||
| xsysinfo 1.7 | MIT | An X Window System kernel parameter monitoring tool |

Linux reseller Bryce Coad had audiences eating out of his hand as he demonstrated the operating system running OpenOffice.org [. . .] Igor Portugal, technical head at Linux reseller Asterisk, which made its first appearance at the show in 1999, says Orix, Linfox Logistics, the Health and Disability Commission and Vita New Zealand are among its customers. Portugal collected a wad of business cards from visitors to his stand, many of which he expected to turn into sales. — ComputerWorld Expo 2002
