I need to be able to monitor remote server services of my clients servers. I have tried some of the commercial software which is costly, overcomplicated and difficult to setup and configure. I just want an email sent if a service stops on a server. Simple as that. The software needs to be cheap or better free. &nbsp;Oh and I dont want to have to do a load of messing around in windows firewall or the hardware firewall to get it to communicate so preferably something that installs on the server ie an agent. Anyone got any recommendations.
