Looking at adding some Windoze machines to a Nagios system, .. all the<br>

It seems a lot more useful to me to run the Cygwin ssh server, and then<br>
have a cbs.sh just like 'Nix - the primary advantage being that you could<br>
*also* use the reverse ssh tunnel for shell access, instead of using a<br>
link exclusively for check_nt & nsclient.<br><br></blockquote><div><br></div>We use Nagios to monitor a ton of windows servers, running NRPE and NC_Net on the windows side and their respective plugins on the Nagios side. And then a few batch files for NRPE to use, and NC_Net allows access to event logs, WMI, and everything else.<div>
