Nagios Proxy for Windows

[Gage, Ron]

Ok - here goes the very rough alpha ..

 

ftp.rongage.org/pub/nagios

 

I put in the nagios component (check_np.c) and the windows component
(nagios_proxy.zip) up on my ftp server.  Go easy on it as I am on cable
modem.

 

To get the check_np.c to compile, drop it into the plugins directory for
nagios-plugins and copy the makefile entries for check_nt.  Same for the
.tpo directory entry.  In fact, the code is strongly based on check_nt.c

 

The nagios_plugin.zip has both the source code as well as the
executable.  The executable runs as a tray icon so look there when you
run it.

 

I am very open to changes to either of these pieces.  Would be great if
I can get check_np.c into the nagios plugins project some time too.
Right now, only the check_drive, check_cpu and check_memory functions
are implemented.  I hope to get the rest of the functions implemented
sometime soon.

 

I have it working here monitoring a couple domain controllers (Win2k)
with no footprint on the domain controllers.

Hi folks:

 

I am currently working on a Nagios Proxy application and plugin for
Windows servers.  What this proxy will allow you to do is monitor such
things as CPU load, Free Memory, and disk space with zero footprint on
the monitored server.  It does require a single application loaded on a
single windows machine (Xp,2000, 2003) to proxy the commands through.

 

The difference between this and other proxies, this one is built on VB6
(not on .NET), and requires no additional services running on the proxy
machine (no more needing IIS).

 

The proxy is written such that (eventually) any WMI accessible object
can be reported back to Nagios.

 

Is this something that you folks would see as useful?  Of course, the
source code is available under a GPL license.
