Hi Joerg,

You are right ! PNP is the easiest way to get performance data graphs
in Nagios. I had PNP installed alongside Groundwork Monitor Open
Source in under an hour. The best thing was that the graphs are
created automatically (assuming your plugin is producing valid
performance data and matches up with one of the PNP templates).

Now when I add a new Windows machine, I will get graphs for CPU,
memory usage and disk usage without having to manually configure
Nagios in any way.

Next in to get SNMP working so I can collect network interface stats
from the Windows boxes.

Thanks

Peter Edmonds
