ZABBIX also uses the snmp-libs for the optional SNMP agents. I use  
ZABBIX to monitor all of my servers and it suits me pretty nicely.  
The ZABBIX web frontend is in PHP, just like Cacti's. See http:// 
www.zabbix.com/manual/v1.1/install_requirements_software.php for more  
info on the software requirements for ZABBIX.
