Interesting point.
Yet strangely enough most people who uses nagios (or for that matter
other monitoring tools) uses various "other protocol" like wbem, ssh,
nrpe, nsca, etc etc.
So is that because they have "yet to see the light" or because the
(SNMP) clients are lacking something?
Or is it because of limitations in the SNMP protocol? (I was under the
impression that the efforts of WBEM was to fix various issues with SNMP?).
