SNMP will work on both and NRPE works well for Linux boxes. Not sure about Macs but since OSX is sitting on a free bsd Kernel (I think). NRPE might work well on OSX as well. Not sure. There is also NSCA which I have not had a lot of luck with except when configuring remote nagios systems to report into a central Nagios Box, or distributed nagios implementations.
Links to NRPE and NSCA are provided at the Nagios site http://www.nagios.org/download/ >>-----Original Message----- >>From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:nagios-users- >>[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vasiliy Boulytchev >>Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2006 2:22 PM >>To: Nagios Users Mailinglist >>Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Good Linux and Mac Client >> >> >>OH lol!
