distributed checks with NT client?

[Anthony Montibello]

NC_NEt was developed for running both active checks and passive checks..
http://sourceforge.net/projects/nc-net

you can download it from sourceforge, asside from accepting Check_nt
requests  it can also be configured for using passive checks.


With Passive checks, you configure the windows server with a buch of checks
and it sends the results to the nagios host running NSCA to recieve the
checks. THe nagios server needs to also be configured with the same check
and host name in order to recieve the data.  NC_NEt also supports Passive
host checks.

Your comment looks like you want to be able to run Scripts and use a single
host as a proxy to others.
that is a bit different, but NC_NEt has RUNSCRIPT command that would allow
you to run your own customized scritps to reach other hosts on the
localnetwork.  and via NRPE you should be able to use NSClient++ to do
the same.

Good luck,  Hope this helps
Tony Author of NC_NEt
