NRPE

[Randal, Phil]

Yes,
 
You can do it without NRPE too.
 
Install something like NSClient++ (http://www.nsclient.org) on the Vista
host.
 
http://www.nsclient.org/nscp/wiki/NSClientListener
 
PROCSTATE is the one you want.
 
I use a command check_nt_process:
 
  $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 1248 -v PROCSTATE -d SHOWALL -l
$ARG1$
 
I use port 1248 (old nsclient port), NSClient++ defaults to port 12489.
 
Cheers,
 
Phil
