Monitoring HP ProLiant Linux servers -- Nagios vs. OVO vs. SIM

Yes, I'm talking about that script.
On the Insight Board, there have to be a configuration point, where you can insert the snmp community string, i think. 
When you have a Windows Server, you have to install the Simple Network Management Protocol and the HP/Compaq Management Agents. In the Services.msc, you have to go to the security tap of the snmp services, and set the right community.

Here's what I did in checkcommands.cfg:
# 'check_insight' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_insight
        command_line    $USER1$/check_compaq_insight.pl -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $USER3$
        }
