Heh.  For the love of all that is good and holy, that document needs
to be taken down. ;-)

No, you don't need to install all that for Windows monitoring.  If you
install and configure the SNMP service and install a package called
SNMP-Informant (search the web for that--it just adds a couple SNMP
agents to your server to get CPU and memory info from Windows SNMP)
you'll have SNMP monitoring covered.  For querying via WMI, make sure
that you have a user (domain or local) that can remotely query WMI
(search the forums for info on that, I wrote a doc on it myself
somewhere), and check out the forums for lots of information on what
you can query (and just how to query) via WMI.
