check_nrpe the reversed way

[mccs.nl]

Hello

Does anyone ever wanted to trigger an script on a linux or bsd box from an windows enviroment?
an nrpe agent could also be a way. but i must be missing the check_nrpe.exe on windows

anyone knows one?

Thx

Could you clarify what you are asking here? I understand the part about using Windows to trigger a script on a Linux machine but the rest?

to clarify.

nor mally you would use an plink or rsh type of thing to trigger an unix binary or script.
but if there was a way to send an check_nrpe message you would send one from linux to windows but then from windows to linux then it could open a new way to do this. as for me i would like this buit there are no windows compiled versions of check_nrpe

Correct there is no check_nrpe compiled for windows, however NSClient++ is what is used to make this link:

Perhaps you could create the message bridge through a plugin used by NSClient++?
