Forwarding through intermediate nodes?

[Chris Pepper]

	We have a couple small HPC compute clusters, and would like to monitor 
our nodes. They aren't large enough to justify their own Nagios 
installations on the head nodes, and the heads aren't particularly 
trusted in our network topology.

	But we would like to monitor health of the compute nodes, on a Nagios 
server which *cannot* connect to the nodes directly.

	I didn't find this in the wiki, SF, or Exchange, and it doesn't look 
like something I could do with a single NSCA.

	Is anyone doing this, or forwarding/tunneling Nagios traffic for 
another reason? I'm considering running a couple ssh tunnels on the head 
node, pointing back to the monitoring servers, but not sure how well 
this will work.

	Suggestions welcomed.

Thanks,

Chris
