If these statistics can be gathered using a shell command, you can use net-snmp's 'exec' syntax to allow remote monitoring of this data. For instance, if you had a script on your webserver that returned the number of running Apache processes, you could put the following in your snmpd.conf file.

Code: Select all

exec /usr/local/bin/apache_processes.sh

To graph this data, you need to look at the UCD-SNMP-MIB::ext table and pick the correct OID that grabs the value from your script.

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -v1 -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8.1

Again yes, but it's really a matter of finding out how MRTG was able to grab these statistics from mod_watch. I have never used mod_watch, but I do know that Cacti can graph anything that MRTG can.
