Network Monitoring

Does anyone have a recommendation for a decent (free) network monitoring program? Preferably a linux distro. I have tried a couple that I can't remember the names of right now but I'm just curious to see if there might be something better than what I've tried.
I am looking mostly for something that will detect issues, like botnet activity, etc. Not interested in being a spy on the workers.
Ta!

Didn't Wattsy recommend something a while back? Can't remember the name of it myself now...
:C
It was a linux distro and I remember trying it out, but had to use the machine it was on for something else so didn't really get a chance to play.

He very well could have. I can't remember anything anymore! I downloaded nagios a bit ago. As soon as I get these final updates installed I'm going to give it a try.
Sorry if I've already asked this!

Have a look at this, it might be overkill but it is free.

Most people seem to pay for their IPS.
This list
