I've been using the Groundwork Monarch web interface (only it) for
Nagios and found it to be a very workable interface for quickly and
easily configuring Nagios configuration files. Have had zero problems
with it - been running since 0.9x and I believe it's up to 1.2 now - but
upgrades have been no problem either.
