  Subject: [Nagios-users] New to Nagios - Watching Services


  Hi,

  I am very new to Nagios but am trying to convince my company that Nagios is the way to go instead of our current monitoring application that we pay a lot for and is VERY basic.  I have a series of items that I need to get Nagios to do so I am excited to be learning it and will probably frequent this list.

  To start with, how do I specify to watch a service in Windows?  For example, I want to watch the Backup Exec remote agent on a series of servers and be paged if for some reason it is not started.  Do I need an add on for this or can I simply specify it in the Windows Cfg file?

  Thanks.

  Kevin
