We have handled this type of situation by using NRPE.  This gives you
the ability to run arbitrary commands on the remote system and pass the
results back to InterMapper, but with the added security of having
control over exactly which commands can be run and with which
parameters.  You also do not have to deal with ssh keys, which
alleviates both a hassle and a security concern.  From InterMapper, you
can use the "Nagios Template" probe to call check_nrpe and point it at
the system you wish to monitor.

NRPE is available from http://www.nagios.org/download/ .  Feel free to
let me know if you need any help in setting it up.
