Yesterday morning, I completed my Nagios Core 3.4.4 install on a vm.
I have had no issue adding a switch to monitor......but I want to add a Windows server as well.....but it must be agentless. I've heard it can be done, and have seen some documentation, but it seems very confusing. I am assuming it is simply by editing a config file.....but don't know which one, or where. I am running this on Centos64.

The above should link to the creators site "in English..again, sorry for that" you should have a list of pre-reqs there, and the build should go smoothly, if the build fails, please copy the output.
