Hi,

I use NSClient++ to monitor a number of services on our servers here.  For 
example, DNS Server, DHCP Server, IIS, Exchange store, and some services for 
line of business apps.

The command definition I use is:
# 'check_nt' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_nt
        command_line    $USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 12489 -v $ARG1$ 
$ARG2$
        }


Service definition:
#dhcp server
define service{
        use                     generic-service
        host_name               servername
        service_description     DHCP Server
        check_command           check_nt!SERVICESTATE!-d SHOWALL -l dhcpserver
        }
# Exchange Store service
define service{
        use                     generic-service
        host_name               exchangeserver
        service_description     Exchange Store Service
        check_command           check_nt!SERVICESTATE!-d SHOWALL -l MSExchangeIS
        }

>From what I have read, you need to use the service name that you would use if 
>starting/stopping the service from a command line, rather than the display 
>name from the services.msc snapin.  You can easily find the service name by

Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Daniel Ceola
