Re: [Nagios-users] Good Linux and Mac Client

2006-08-17 Thread Maxwell,Brady
SNMP will work on both and NRPE works well for Linux boxes. Not sure
about Macs but since OSX is sitting on a free bsd Kernel (I think). NRPE
might work well on OSX as well. Not sure.
There is also NSCA which I have not had a lot of luck with except when
configuring remote nagios systems to report into a central Nagios Box,
or distributed nagios implementations.

Links to NRPE and NSCA are provided at the Nagios site

After all that and still a net NULL answer? Some kind of pointer would
have been useful to justify the chatter.

They are (sometimes) refered to as agents. Which make it much clearer what
way you want to go.

However these agents are as diverse as the things you want to monitor.

No client exists that I know of nor is there really a need for one.
check_nrpe or check_by_ssh + whatever interesting plugins you want to
run on the remote machine (check_disk, check_proc, check_swap, etc, etc,
etc) is the way to go. I definitely know the plugins compile under linux
and almost certainly compile under OSX.

I would recommend firefox. Perhaps thunderbird for the alert messages.

But perhaps you think of something completely different as 'client' of
Nagios. But it would be wise to explain how you define a 'client'.
