Monitoring Windows workstation

Hi *,

I'd like some advices on the following case:

A network monitored by Nagios. I'd like to run a script when a workstation
boots.
This script should perform the following actions:

1. Check if some services are running (antivirus, vnc server)
2. Send the info to Nagios (passive check)

My idea is to define one passive check on a fake host in Nagios named
"Workstation_Security".
All workstations will feed this service with the following info:
	- Host name / IP
	- Services status (OK, WARN, CRIT)

What's the best way to achieve this? In the user profile? How to send the
information
to Nagios? What are your experience with such setup?

/x
