I want to track a set network resources like Linux servers,hosts for
network connectivity , and want to keep track of their activeness and
possible inactivity due to network outage or any other reason. The hosts/serves I&#39;m trying to monitor are regular Linux boxes with 2.6.x kernel. My personal preference would be a dynamic background heart-beat process which could sit on these servers/hosts and send periodic udp-packets to a master server to signal host activity and inactivity. <br>

<br>As I&#39;m quite new to twisted i would like to know if twisted provides any functionality/libraries to do net monitoring.Any ideas using twisted to do the same would be greatly appreciated. <br><br>Sid J<br>
