mrtg monitoring remote servers


hello. i do have a few debian wheezy boxes for different jobs in different places. all of them through vpn.
in one of them (box A) i have mrtg to monitor this box. i would like to add the rest of the machines to be monitored from the box A. What do i have to do in each one of them and what to do in box A?
i do need to monitor cpu, ram, disk space, bandwidth on each box with a distinctive name in its box.

Are you looking to monitor or to graph?

If you're looking to monitor and receive alerts then consider NAGIOS as a monitoring tool rather than mrtg.

Simple install MRTG in one of your machine and enable SNMPd in all the servers and retrieve the data using SNMP OID's
