Yes, the host check can be anything you like. Something like check_nt -V client_version would do the trick (forgive me if my syntax isn't quite right - going from memory). You could alternatively do an snmp query of the switch port the host is connected to, but that's a bit complicated I guess. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
