    I have at present a number of Distrubuted Firewalls based on solaris 2.6 and
    Checkpoint 4.1 approx 10

    I am at present creating a hardened Build for Solaris 8 to use when i deploy
    NG in the not too distanf future.

    My question is as to what methods people use to manage and monitor the
    underlying Unix operating systems on the firewalls. SNMP doesnt seem the
    best thing to be running on the Firewall itself so how would people suggest
    that i monitore the OS

    All suggestions greatfully received
