Hi,

For installation and configuration of nagios you can refer to the below url

nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/installing.html

As far as I know, Nagios montiors the servers by ping request, so try to configure the client macine with the IP on the server.

so that your server can ping the client as

ping 192.168.0.10

You Need to use the NSClient++ to monitor windows machines. If you need help, you can get it from Nagios Enterprises!
