I wrote a lot of my plugins to run commands through an RSA ssh connection from my Nagios machine to other machines. This way there is no code on the monitored machine.

Is there any way to monitor the services without installing any software on the machine? If any of you have come across of the same kind of situation and found the solution for this, then please provide the information regarding this.
