I picked WxSolution http://www.thunderheadtech.com/WxSolution

Partly because I liked the remote connect ability. It'd be
nice if it could minimize to the systray, but it runs on my
fileserver, so it's not that big a deal. And I remote 
connect and get a "live" window somewhat like a console.

There's not much in the way of fancy web graphics, if that
is what you want. And the stock template has a number of
issues passing w3c validation. But with some php and local
caching of the findu graphs I somewhat made up for that:

It's still a work in progress...
