Dear Experts,
What are the differences and advantages b/w agentless nagios setup and
agent based (NRPE, NSCclient) Nagios monitoring.
Please help me in understanding which is better to go with Agentless or
Agent based.
Please Help.
Thanks Regards,

There is no such thing as better here - else everybody would just be
using that method.
The difference is simply that agent-based Nagios monitoring requires
that you install software on the client, while agentless monitoring
allows you to monitor the computer from afar using SNMP, WMI and the
Hi Kevin,
Thanks a lot for the valuable information.
Are there any different documents for Agentless Nagios setup and Agent based

On doing check_snmp -H 172.25.198.36 -C -o sysUpTime.0, it returns
SNMP OK - TimeTicks: (17742960) 2 days, 1:17:09.60
If Nagios can succeed on the command line without changing your snmp config I
would presume that means the problem is in your nagios .cfg file.
I'm not quite sure what you mean when you are saying trying to get SNMP
to work within the web interface of Nagios. These two things really
have very little to do with each other. The Web interface is simply
something that lets you, the user, access status information.
Any checking is

No. These two files are related to the SNMP daemon and the SNMP trap
handling, respectively.
Basically, SNMP has two different ways it operates. You can query client
machines using SNMP, or the client machines can actively send you
information (usually only when some event occurs). Actively
If your command is working from the command line chances are it will succeed if
