Default Linux tool for disk blocks usage

Hi,
What is a good tool to remotely monitor disk usage (actual blocks used
and free space) for storage hosted by a Linux server? Perhaps a tool
with some graphical usage summary? Monitoring the data via CIFS and
NFS shares will not work in our environment that well since some
directories are not exposed via NAS protocols

df. I'd login to the Linux server (with SSH) and run df periodically.
Maybe in combination with the "watch" tool, like so:

watch -d df

No commercial application with a richer feature set and graphs?
Things like alerts etc that are available on SRM tools?

NetVault Report manager from Bakbone may be able to do what you need.
