Check_SSH Plug-In

[John Moore]

 ./negate -w OK -o CRITICAL /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_ssh -H db4 SSH OK - OpenSSH_3.6.1p2 (protocol 1.99)  ./check_ssh -H db4 SSH OK - OpenSSH_3.6.1p2 (protocol 1.99)
Ok, so should I configure this in my clients nrpe.cfg and have it ran as a local check?
Or just configure it to check from the nagios box?
 
Second, is this something thats installed thru the standard plug-ins?  If not, a link would be handy to locate the add-on.
 
Thanks,
John
