Download Zabbix 1.3 beta

With the Zabbix program you can monitor various parts of your network and services on your servers. The program supports two different options to retrieve the relevant information. It can send requests from its own host to the various services and network components, which then respond to them. In addition, there is a so-called agent that can be installed on the host to be monitored with which detailed information can be retrieved.
