Actually, putting all the "active probing" solutions aside, wouldn't it be better to go about things the other way around?
What we plan on doing is the following: Each of our servers gets installed with a standard build, consisting of OS, patches and various pieces of software + configuration. Included with this software is our Nagios client software, which is already fully configured. This Nagios client software includes a script that is run once, automatically after installation, and which alerts the Nagios servers of a new client system. The Nagios servers then proceed to automatically generate the relevant pieces of configuration. Seems like a nicer, safer way to go about things.
