Advice on Plugin Development

[Nick Weisser]

Hi there,

I need a plugin for Nagios that reboots an external server under certain 
circumstances (no ping response).

There is no "direct connection" between the machine that Nagios runs on 
and the monitored server, so the reboot needs to be initiated via HTTPS 
with several POST parameters, i.e. a "simple" web form.

I've been using Nagios for quite some time now, but I'm not sure if this 
can be realized with a plugin or what other approaches are possible.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
