Thanks for the posts y'all! I was able to get it running w/ 2 batch files. The first batch file was strictly a file copy script that sent over the config and update script. The second batch uses psexec to run the update script on each windows server. I'm still working out some kinks, but for the most part it's working. If anyone is looking for more information on how to do this, let me know and I would be glad to help.

The SYSTEM account does not have access to network resources. One solution is to create a domain user account and then change the NSClient++ service to use the new account. Also make sure the account has access to the batch file. As someone else mentioned it may make more sense to use a scheduled task but it also needs to run as a network account that has access. You may want to look at psexec from Sysinternals. Alex Leleux, Jeremy J wrote: > I'm running Nagios 3.0.6/CentOS 5.2 for my Nagios server.
