New guide as well as some wiki updates
Hello everyone (yes, I know.. no one reads this but anyways feels better pretending not talk to myself)...
I have added a new guide (it I hope illustrates the basics of using NSClient++ with Nagios) on how to check if a process is running on a windows machine. It draws upon the earlier guides I published recently and tries to be very through and detailed. Please let me know if they are helpful or not and how I can improve them. The guide ca be found here or from the new Check Guides Page.
I have also reworked the "menu system" for the wiki to something slightly more "compact" and hopefully easier to work with, please let me know what you think.

Also don't forget the Netways Conferance this fall:
I will also give a presentation on Application Monitoring where I will dive into how to monitor your Java based middleware via (amongst other things) JMX.
Details on the conference can be found at the web page http://www.netways.de/en/osmc/y2009/splitpage/.
I will be pressenting at Open Source Monitoring Conference
Netways will be holding an Open Source Monitoring Conference with a strong focus on Nagios again this year. I shall (again) be speaking and this year. Last year I did a presentation on Windows monitoring and I will follow up that this year with a workshop. The topic for the workshop will focus around windows monitoring and we will install/configure NSClient++ and then setup a series of checks to monitor your windows environment.
In Addition to this I will also give a presentation on Application Monitoring where I will dive into how to monitor your Java based middleware via (amongst other things) JMX.
Details on the conference can be found at the web page http://www.netways.de/en/osmc/y2009/splitpage/.
Feel free to hit me with questions before and I shall try to incorporate the answers in my presentation. Also if you attended last year feel free to provide me with some feedback so I might improve this years presentation!

New Guide and a big thank you to Netways!
Hello everyone.
I have some really nice news and lets get started by a big big thank you to the guys over at netways in Germany for hosting the site. It is an amazing performance improvement!
Secondly to start off the summer I have written a guide on how to use NSClient++ with Nagios (NSClient, NRPE and NSCA) it is brand new and feedback is appreciated!
The guide can be found on the wiki as well as a PDF (attached below). The idea is to distribute the PDF with the installation package as the first step in improving the documentation of NSClient++.
Next up is 0.3.7 build which will fix a few issues and (if I have time) add some new stuff. I shall also go over the wiki and try to update the documentation but it is lengthy and (perhaps more so) boring work.
As always if anyone wants to donate to the project and help keep up my documentation spirit feel free to visit the donation page and become a "fan" of NSClient++. Donations are always welcome!.
And finally another big shout out to the guy at netways!
