I would use PHP, personally, since I know it best. It might be easiest to install PHP on each box, and have it in a cron job to check whateve and send the results, perhaps via email, to somewhere. Another option would be to right a PHP webpage on each box, and have the central box just file_get_contents() on each page -- assuming you can turn on allow_url_fopen on that box. You *could* go whole hog and use PHP to set up RPC or SOAP on each box, to allow you to execute the commands, but that would be a lot of extra work for not much benefit for such a simple task. -- Some people have a "gift" link here.
