NSClient++ listens for NRPE requests as well, on TCP port 5666. Hence,
if you have NSClient++ installed on your Windows systems, you can use
check_nrpe to talk to them. And yes, then you'd need to install the
check_nrpe tool on your Nagios server.
I prefer using check_nrpe, I only use check_nt for a very small number
of services.
The command definition I gave you will check a service on a remote
Windows server to see if it's running or not. So, open up your
Windows services snap-in, and you can check any of the services
listed the same way.
