I adore Munin.  It's great for helping me keep track of how loaded my
servers are.

I also like rsync for its general utility, and duplicity, which is
like rsync but with the ability to do incremental/differential
backups.

I know that Munin and Duplicity can be installed via apt-get on Ubuntu
8.04.  Not sure about other distros.
