What exactly are you looking to monitor? If you're able to communicate with those hosts, this should be pretty trivial.

Thanks

Want to check cpu temperatue and hard drive left capacity and cameras that connect to these remote computers that each of them has separate DNS and valid IP.

Depends on if that information is available. What kind of OS?

nader wrote:hard drive left capacity

A lot of different ways to do it. Again, what OS?

nader wrote:and cameras that connect to these remote computers

Connect how? What do you want to monitor on them? What model?

What OS? Makes a world of difference. I am slightly confused since above you said that they are connected to the computer.

Thanks for your reply, All OS are windows 7 or 8 ,
I want to use NAGIOS to find out the windows stability and cameras that now I can see via DNS and port.

Start off by monitoring free space by using NSClient++

Then use the Windows Server Wizard.

Are these cameras only accessible from that Windows PC, or can any device on the network get to them?
