<div>Yes this can be done in NC_Net </div>
<div>but depending on your goals the service could also be configured to restart if it stop</div>
<div> </div>
<div>For NC_Net</div>
<div>First make sure you are using a current version of Nc_Net </div>
<div>Sourceforge is the only location that NC_Net should be downloaded from.</div>
<div><a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/nc-net">http://sourceforge.net/projects/nc-net</a></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Use the RUNSCRIPT command check help for syntex</div>
<div>./check_nc_net --help=RUNSCRIPT </div>
<div> </div>
<div>create a batch that runs the net start command.</div>
<div>copy it into the script folder of NC_Net install folder.</div>
<div>Make sure your startup.cfg is configured approprialty for running scripts. (documentation is clear for these settings in the Startup.cfg file in the config folder of NC_NEt install location)</div>
<div>if you modified the starup make sure to restart NC_NEt</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Then configure a event script for nagios that calls check_nt -v RUNSCRIPT -l "Scriptname"<br></div>

You'd define an NRPE command (say "start_service") that run "net start $ARG1$" where $ARG1$ is the name of the service to start. It's possible that NC_NET has some built-in capability to manage services too without resorting to an actual NRPE command.</span></font></div>
