Monitor Thin Clients with Nagios

Like anything else, the thin clients have to be able to report,
somehow. Given the fact that there is a Wyse MIB (
http://www.oidview.com/mibs/714/WYSE-MIB.html ), I'd wager they
support SNMP, and thus could probably be set up like any other network
accessible host.

Also, there's a chance (though I'm unfamiliar with the equipment, so I
don't know how good of a chance) that they could be setup for SNMP
traps, in which case you can probably be alerted for hardware faults.

Good luck. Get it done, then write some documentation! ;-)
