What the best way to monitor Windows?

[Martin Hugo]

I second NSClient++, easy to install on the hosts, no restart necessary.  Here's a tip, once you have one working, copy the client.ini file to your install point and drop it in the appropriate folder on the new client before you start the service.

I can send examples of our different checks if you need them.

I've got a Nagios installation all up and running and working just fine.
Now I have to start monitoring some Windows Servers.

There are so many different plugins. What are the recommendations for doing this?

We have some Win Server 2003, 2008 as well as Exchange and SQL.

Thanks


NSClient++ worked fine for us.
