Thanks very much for the reply. I will also take a look at your client too, how stable is it at present?

If you want to do the editing manually, use Microsoft's Orca. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/255905 Or if you want to automate it, look into MakeMSI. http://dennisbareis.com/makemsi.htm This scripting language is a bit quirky, but it works. That said, I'm currently working on a complete Nagios client including install package that may do just about the same thing (and a few more things). You can already download it from Sourceforge, although the "burn the server IP address into the MSI" functionality isn't implemented yet. One thing I did differently from NSClient is that I am using HTTPS to submit the results (an older version also supported SSH, but I have not re-implemented that in the latest version). That lets me avoid firewall issues. It is based on NSClient++ with quite a few enhancements. http://sourceforge.net/projects/tntmonitoring/ Martyn wrote: > > Can anybody recommend an MSI editor, I would like to add the IP > address of the server before I send the client MSI out, if I have to > purchase one I do not mind. > > Cheers > > Martyn > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
