I'm monitoring a few clients that are located with our hosting partner,
and
I'm pondering on how I can add to my monitoring customers that do their
own
hosting ( of our software ).
The thing is they are behind a firewall that requires a manual routine to
connect, so doing it automatically is out of the question so it rules out
bbfetch/hobbitfetch.

But I was wondering if I can setup a monitoring solution remotly in their
data-senter, that I would be able to synch my local xymon server with and
doing so get all the trends and messages that has been gathered since last
synch ( not for alerts, just for historical reference ). So if I need to
debug anything on their end, I can synch the monitoring and see when
things
started and how it escelated etc.

Any one have anyrthing similar setup for them ?
I'm currently running my clients/servers on version 4.2.3
I'm not sure if this does everything you need, but certainly a starting point:
