I've been looking at trying to set up a read-only user for Nagios to
use for an in-office dashboard. Since this is set up where any
staff member could get physical access to it, I need to be able to
define a user who can view and browse assigned devices through the web
interface, but

How do I monitor the disk usage of remote servers ??
By either using check_by_ssh or with a remote agent like NRPE.

I believe this to be caused by the check itself is timing out. As when
I try to login it will sometimes take up to a minute or two just to
