If your machines have SNMP stacks (as all real machines should), then you 
could use SNMPerl and/or tkined to come up with a simple monitoring system.

The routers almost definitely should be snmp monitorable.  As for the 
workstations, Digital Unix and AIX come with minimal SNMP stacks, and 
Linux comes with a very good derrivative of the CMU stack.  There is one 
for FreeBSD also, done at UC-Davis.  For other boxes, you'll probably 
have to buy them.

Good luck.
