Could you please post more information about what you are trying to do?

If you're trying to to something similar to the following it's not quite straight forward with the current version, but possible. With the new 1.5.x/1.6 proxy I understand this to be easier to accomplish.

Server  <-------> Machine A  <------------> Machine B
        local lan              remote lan

Another option would be to have B "send" it's information to the server using the Zabbix_sender, however you'll need to expose the trapper ports for the Zabbix server on your firewall for this, and your script on B would have to run in a cron job. Otherwise if you have a script running on A polling B the results will show up as part of A in the Zabbix database.

It seems you need ZABBIX Proxy, which will be released along with ZABBIX 1.6!
