Hi there,


Have you looked at the normal set of plugins available?  IIRC there are
enough "out of the box" plugins to get you started.

There are numerous ways you can approach this.  In my environment we set
up an account called "nagios" in which we installed the public keys for
the nagios user on our monitoring machine so the nagios user is trusted
as "nagios" on all of our machines.  You then can run check-by-ssh with
the plugin name you are after and life is good.

Another approach is to install nrpe on the machines and let it run the
various plugins and handle the responses.

The first method I outlined is my environment's "old way" of doing it
and is being phased out in favor of the latter. I self-designated myself
the task of taking our "legacy" Netsaint infrastructure and converting
it to Nagios.  In our environment all the bells and whistles to allow
Netsaint (now Nagios) monitoring are part of our standard build and all
machines being deployed are set up for it and putting the checks into
Netsaint (in future Nagios) are part of our checklist for deployment.
