Best question ever asked on this list to date! (or maybe it's already been asked too many times :P)

[Chris Losch]

Pronouncing Nagios, I remember seeing a post which says something about the
FAQ's which state 'say it how you want'

As for WINS - 

Two things you could do,

Check port 42 using check_tcp for connections - which will tell you if the
service is up - but not necessarily if it is working as expected,

or 

use check_snmp and OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.2.x for various statistics. (look
at http://www.mibcentral.com/ for a full listing of things you can get out
of it (great site - thanks to whoever pointed it out on this mailing-list))

I have yet to work out a way of testing the actual response received (I am
not looking to write my own plugins at this time).

Ok, first of all, much thanks to everyone for the excellent response on my
MS SQL monitoring question.

Secondly, now that I am really starting to dig Nagios, I have one big huge
problem... How do you pronounce Nagios?! :)

... On a more serious note, does anyone have a good way to monitor WINS?

Regards,

David.
