I added a windows machine with NSClient++, I added the service Ping to 
both localhost and the windows machine, and the graphs are >showing up 
fine. But when I add Memory, procs, load service to the windows machine no 
graphs shows. How come it works with ping for both localhost and Windows 
machine? Even though I made sure that >the service_description is the same 
as for the localhost
>I am about to go insain, please help? I know this belongs under 
NagiosGrapher mailinglist, and I posted there as well, but I got 0 answers 
there, hoping that someone can help me here. 
 
Could be a number of things, but my top guesses would be:

1.      Performance data collection not ticked in the service definition 
for the extra NSClient++ services
2.      No regular expression in the map file to collect the data 
3.      No addition to serviceext info.cfg to display the icon/link to the 
graphs in the web interface

You could try to tail the perfdata.dat to see if anything is being written 
to check '1'
Copy the map file and edit it offline to check '2' - switching on 
debugging in nagios graph should return errors to its log along the lines 
of unrecognised data if you have no mappings
If there are RRD files being created, and there is no icon, check the 
serviceextinfo.cfg file

I'm betting its '2' though, here's an example from NSClient++ for Memory 
check graphing

# Service type: ntmem
#   check command:
#   output:
#   perfdata: 'physical memory'=63%;85;95;
/perfdata:.*memory'=([.0-9]+)%;([.0-9]+);([.0-9]+)/
and push @s, [ ntmem,
      [ memused, GAUGE, $1],
      [ memwarn, GAUGE, $2],
      [ memcrit, GAUGE, $3] ];

.. there isn't any performance data, the graph is drawn from the output - 
at least, this is how I did it. :-)
