Lets take the easier route. nsclient++ (http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=131326) added checks for Filesize since this thread started.
checkout http://nscplus.medin.name/index.php/CheckFileSize
Hope this is helpful,

Hi Bill,
Im still confused as to what i need to do/run on the nagios server....and
then how that in turn can send an alert if the value returned by the .bat
file is over say 500MB?
I've installed nsclient++ on the remote windows server....and in NSC.ini ive
got:
command[check_cmd]=D:\hello.cmd
hello.cmd contains:
@echo off
echo hello world.
exit 1
now using this as an example im wondering what i need to do/run from the
nagios server inorder to check if the value returned by hello.cmd is "hellow
world" and if so have a status of ok.
sorry to bother you...but i i could really do with the help!
