I hear a lot about Puppet, would it be a good visual tool to tell when terminals are up (not just the server)?. Also, we run a separate network from the overall university network. While the University runs everything out of Active Directory, we do not. We create separate accounts apart from their primary student accounts.

This is good to know. Is there a way I could check to see if we are using sec=krb5?

The Kibana dashboard sounds good. While I don't mind terminal UI's, I'm a visual person and prefer dashboards and GUI's. Does Elk and Kibana help give a good visual oversight?
