So SNMP won't work with Windows? Damn, clients hate extra software. :( Would you be willing to post your commands/services configs?<br>I bet if I see your configs I may be able to replicate it to SNMP/windows.<br><br>

the host/device. For switches etc, this is in the SNMP counter. For windows
hosts, it is via check_nt and the UPTIME object. For unix, you just create an
appropriate script to run via nrpe.</span></font></p>
<p><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">We then do a critical if uptime <
10min. Since hosts are checked every 5min at most then even if the hosts
reboots quickly, this will alert. A scheduled outage is OK because the
scheduled downtime extends 10min after the reboot.</span></font></p>

to find how to get messages when they reboot. Solarwinds does this for me now,
but I'm trying to move off this solution, but my boss want reboot messages as
well as up/downs for the devices... <br>
