    PING, etc.)
 *  Plugin interface to allow for user-developed service checks
 *  Contact notifications when problems occur and get resolved (via email,
    pager, or user-defined method)
 *  Ability to define event handlers to be run during service or host events
    (for proactive problem resolution)
 *  Web output (current status, notifications, problem history, log file, etc.)

Nagios was written in C and is designed to be easy to understand and modify to fit your own needs.
