CentOS - Sep 2006 - checking remote processes

hi...

looking for how to check processes from the process table of a remote
machine. i want to be able to automate the process. i'd prefer to be able to
have a cron process to periodically check the status..

any thoughts/comment/ideas would be helpful...

thanks
