NSClient password - where in Nagios does it go?

I followed the instructions on page 3 of "Installing_The_XI_Windows_Agent.pdf" and added a password in the box titled "NSClient password (only used via check_nt):". I'm trying to find this in NagiosXI but having a hard time, can someone point me in the right direction?

Thank you!

I resolved this issue by entering the password in $ARG1$ under the services management in Nagios Core Config Manager.

Hi Jason -

When you run the Windows Desktop or Windows Server monitoring wizard there is a link to download the agent. Right below the download link is where you'll find the "Agent Password" text field.
