[Nagiosplug-help] Monitor Windows servers

Hi Behrouz,

You can use the standard check_http, check_ftp, check_dns and POP3/SMTP plugins that came with your Nagios distribution: they run on the Nagios server, not the Windows box, and don't care what platform's the HTTP/FTP/whatever service is running on.  For MySQL, you could use check_nt and NSClient to check that the MySQL service is running, like this:

check_nt -H <Host IP> -v SERVICESTATE -l <Windows service name>

Ta,
IR.

Dear guys,
Thanks for your fast respond.
The thing is I'm already using NSCLIENT++ and default services(c:\Drive space,CPU load,Explorer,Memory usage,NSCLIENT++ version,uptime and W3SVC) are fine and working properly,My problem is I want to check (HTTP,HTTPS,FTP,MYSQL,SMTP,POP3,DNS and bandwidth) and as far as I read it's possible thrigh NRPE but check plugins has to be converted to .EXE or .Bat file and I tried to do it with Wincygn but it didn't work!
So I do not know how to monitor these services remotely.
Please guide me with this.
Thanks
