There is this new http://www.canonical.com/projects/landscape/FAQ project out there. Would really like to try this, but to actually use it need an "account"

Has anyone had any luck getting a trial account?

This is really a GREAT tool for anyone running Ubuntu in a server environ.

Right now use Ganglia, and many other monitors.

Would maybe even get my company to guy a few licences for this... but like many have "no time" for fiddling... and Conical isn't getting back about a trial account.

Wondering if anyone is using, and spread the word... What ya'll think of this?

I reallly would like to test the product to - but havent heard from them yet :-(

I cant find any alternatives to Landscape (We do use puppet) but thats far from the same. If anyone has the trial installation please PM me.

They got back to me but it took a few weeks. For the most part it is Ganglia, with a few unique options like listing packages installed, and when they need updating etc.

Ganglia will tell you more "that is actually useful" out of the box.
