[Xymon] Is SNMP a solution

[usa ims]

It would be nice to use 'xymon-rclient.sh' on the '192.168.1.51' node which is not exposed on the Internet. I wanted 'xymon-rclient.sh' to monitor log files and alert if there is a problem.
But I just found out that I can't even use ssh scripts because of compliance. Would SNMP be a good solution if I can't use ssh scripts?

Personally, I'd add a custom ext to the server you DO have access to, 
which will ping/test connectivity to your second server, and then report 
the results back along with the rest of the results.

Or, did you want to run a client on the second machine?
