Ok, thanks.

I wrote a post into the NSClient++ explaining this case, I didn't find the
e-mail users list of nsclient++...

Now I haven't more knolegments for developping this plugin, but I found some

For a different method altogether, you could install the snmpd service on either windows or *nix, and use the check_snmp plugin, and/or these for windows stuff:

(for other snmp plugins, i'm sure there are many more http://www.nagiosexchange.org)
