Windows Client...

[Emmett Hogan]

Hi Everyone!

Well....I have all my Un*x boxen now monitored (along with my networked 
HP printers...my NT admins LOVE getting emails about "Low 
Toner"....NOT!) :-)  So, it's ime to move on to the Windoze machines, 
however I am getting mixed signals.  What is the common method for 
monitoring Windows machines?  I have seen references to:  nsclient, 
ns_net, ns_client (maybe the same as nsclient), nrpe_nt, snmp, etc.  I 
know, like PERL, there are lots of "right ways" to do what I want (basic 
monitoring of the systems and processes/services), but I want to go with 
one that is the "norm".  I have seen that there might be memory leakage 
problems with nsclient (plus it's not currently being maintained)...so 
what is everyone using now?

Thanks,
Emmett
