Hi,
I need to monitor some windows boxen (primarily win 2003 i think), for
the standard stuff (disk space, cpu, blah), and more importantly to
make sure a certain process is running at all times (it's not a
service, just a process). I have no problem doing this sort of thing
on *nix, but i'm not quite so familiar w/ the wild world of windows.
I did a quick google search and came across two different beasts that
both look like they could do the job quite well: nsclient, and
nrpe_nt. Now the question is... what are the differences between the
two? I understand that nrpe_nt is mostly just a port of the standard
nrpe (which i have read about, but have not yet had the occasion to
use), whereas nsclient appears to be written from the ground up (and
apparently more dated?). I was just wondering if people w/ experience
could tell me what (or hasn't) worked for them, and whether or not one
of these is the more "standard" approach.
thanks,
Cameron Matheson
