Well, this explained why we developed (or enhanced) OpMonAgent: to do not

Re: [Nagios-users] NSClient++ and .Net

2009-03-11 Thread Kevin Keane
Actually, .Net 1.1, 2.0 SP2, 3.0 SP2 and 3.5 SP1 (and, coming soon, 4.x) 
should be installed on pretty much all well-maintained Windows XP and 
Windows 2003 systems. These versions coexist nicely.

Microsoft has been pushing them out as part of their update packages, so 
the only reason they might not be installed is that either an 
administrator specifically excluded them from installing due to some 
incompatibility (which is rare; I haven't heard of any problems), or 
hasn't been diligent about doing Windows updating in the first place. On 
all the servers I manage, I use WSUS and have these updates pushed out 
automatically. Or if you prefer, run Windows Update, and you will get 
all of these versions of .Net.

That said, for Nagios purposes, I am not very fond of using .Net. The 
reason is that it has a huge footprint - and that means, more memory, 
slower loading times, and a host of other issues. Of the plugins I use 
in TNTMonitoring, those that do use .Net are well over 1 MB *each*. 
Those that don't use it are a few dozen KB each. Obviously, I'm looking 
to replace those big plugins at some point.

It might be less severe for an agent that runs continuously than for a 
plugin that is started once.

NC_Net is the client that uses Dot Net framework.

Yes the Current version of 4.x of NC_NEt should work without issues on
Server 2008

The next Build will be using Dot Net 3.5  NC_Net v5.x
but I still am in the middle of building the new Setup project for it.
If anyones wants to test it Email me directly

Hello,

I am guessing you are a bit confused.
NSClient++ does not use .net (nor require it) perhaps you are thinking

[Nagios-users] NSClient++ and .Net

2009-03-11 Thread Andrew Davis
If I recall, Windows 2000 Server didn't include .Net, but you could 
install it.
Windows 2003 Server included .Net 1.x, but you could additionally add 
.Net 2.x.
Now it seems that Server 2008 includes .Net 2.x by default and you can 
install .Net 3.x, though MS finall got smart and just did one big rollup 
package so you don't have to have .Net 1.x and 2.x both installed, etc.


So my question is this: right now we're mostly Server 2003, but 
migrating to Server 2008. NSClient++ 4.x requires .Net 2.x, but will it 
work with .Net 3.x on Server 2008? Anyone know? Anyone tried?


Thanks,
