Problem: I would like to have one server monitor another server.
If the server being monitored fails, the monitor server would proceed to
load the network services automatically; theoretically eliminating
disruptive gaps for our office.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!

The word you are looking for is High-Availability.
There are numerous documents and software packages on this subject. A
google search for "High Availability Linux" would go far.

Hi Alan
Besides heartbeat from www.linux-ha.org you may try Kimberlite from
Mission Critical Linux:
http://oss.missioncriticallinux.com/projects/kimberlite/
It has a good general clustering and HA documentation :)
