Separate NAG from Web Interface

NSCA could possibly do this.  However, this means that you
will also need to set up Nagios on your webserver.

If you do *not* want to set up Nagios on your webserver,
then you'll have to somehow make the cgi's and so on available
to the webserver.  One way would be to use rsync, but that would
have to hit it pretty frequently.  Another way would be to use
NFS.  But you've stated that your webserver is already hardened;
I'm sure you understand the implications of enabling NFS on a
secure host.

Are you sure you don't want to set up a new webserver?
