Monitoring Unix machine from a windows machine

[Kevin Keane]

You say that the Windows machine is able to launch scripts on the Unix 
machine. Why not plugins - which basically simply ARE scripts? There are 
multiple ways to launch scripts on the Unix box. Which one is 
appropriate for you depends on your specific situation. Look into NSCA 
or NRPE (those do require an agent to be installed on the Unix box), as 
well as check_by_ssh.
