PIKT
PIKT (Problem Informant/Killer Tool) is
a cross-categorical, multi-purpose software for monitoring and
configuring computer systems, administering networks, organizing system
security, and much more.
PIKT's primary task is to warn users of problems (system
monitoring), but also to fix those
problems when needed. However, its second main use is for configuration
management. It is also used by thousands of sites for server and
network administration and system security.
PIKT is an embedded script language and accompanying script
interpreter. PIKT is also a sophisticated script and system
configuration file preprocessor for use with the Pikt script language
or any other scripting language of your choice.
This software is very mature having been in development since
1998.
