It can be done with Nagios (which is just a scheduler), but not by using check_nt. It can be done using check_nt to connect to an NCNet instance (or perhaps NCNet can be compiled using Mono or some such, in which case you should be able to tweak it enough to make it usable from command-line on any unixy system where you can install mono). In this case "check_nt" is the hammer. Nagios is just the carpenter, and it can use hammers, cars, TV's, screwdrivers, beer and carpet slippers just fine ;-) I should look into NCNet. If it's written in C#, it might be usable with mono and then we could get a Linux binary running checks directly against windows hosts, with actual credentials being used for authentication. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.erics...@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war on peace. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
