SMS 2003 Install of Nagios

I can install the .msi file to a server using a SMS2003 package and advertisement. The issue I have is copying a .ini file from the primary server to a server to replace the initially created .ini file and to then stop and start the service. I am trying to put this in a .bat file that is stored on the primary server. Any suggestions would be appreciated to help push this out using SMS 2003.

Are you trying to deploy NSClient++

Yes. What I ended up doing was creating a package that ran the .msi command line. I also had to use a .bat file to copy the nsclient.ini file we wanted to the servers. Clunky but seemed to work. Next I need to see how - within SMS 2003 again - I can uninstall the Nagios client. I will make another post shortly.

karch01,

Have you looked this document on deploying NSClient++ using SCCM:

the same steps should apply to SMS.

Yes, I had reviewed that document and it was close to what I needed. Thank you for the response. Now on to how to remove the program once it is there. I will start a separate post for this question.
