Remote hosts

[Anders.DaSilva at softronic.se]

Hi.

Either use check_nrpe or check_ssh, check_ssh is easier to use through firewalls, check_nrpe uses a little less cpu and seems to be a good method for both linux/windows.  By using check_nrpe you install a nrpe service on the monitored host and then define local tests. The output gets transfered through the nrpe service to the nagios host. The nagios host only talks to the nrpe service.

Regards
Anders da Silva

Hi. I'm running nagios core 3.23.

Can you advise how to set up commands and services that query things on remote hosts such as disk space or pagefile usage like we do for localhost?
Is there a sample config available somewhere so that I can get a rough idea?

Trying to use this on Nagwin.

Thanks, Paul.
