How about cricket by itself? How come you integrated it into Nagios?

Only have about 15 machines.

Thanks for the suggestion. Will take a look at nagios.
Does it come with template/sample configurations?

Also how are the compile requirements for it?
Have, unfortunately, some pre 4.11 machines and right now it would be 
great if I didn't have to fight with upgrading the ports for all the 
machines right now.
