This is a plugin that allows you to query plugins remotely via the UCD SNMP daemon. It works similarly to NRPE but via SNMP.
The UCD SNMP daemon allows plugins to be added, and will take any Nagios plugin without modification. Therefore, you can run your checks remotely via SNMP without having to use NRPE, if you dont want to.

To use it, put a line like this in your snmpd.conf file on the remote server:

exec check_cpu /usr/local/nrpe/check_cpu -w 80 -c 90

and restart the SNMP daemon. You can now query this plugin remotely by using

check_ucd -H hostname -C community -v check_cpu

Note that you cannot pass any parameters to the remote plugin, though.
