I am no expert but AFAIK it merely encrypts the traffic ie, no
certificates at all.

Sorry to barge in (without reading the thread but...)
Security wise NRPE lacks any form of authentication which is something
SSH has so in this regard SSH is the more secure one...

Hi Idriss,
What I think? I think I learned something new! Thanks for telling me
about the NRPE-with-SSL option; I was not aware of that.
That said, I suspect that the overhead for SSL and SSH will be very
similar, because under the hood they use quite similar algorithms. I
want to say, they ac

Hi Kevin,
I carefully read your speech about this subject and I found you a lot
of insist on security offering by ssh, but you can also configure
nrpe to work with ssl so I think we will have no difference at this
level, then what do you think?
best regards

Hi all,
I was wondering if someone could give a brief overview of the pros /
cons of using NRPE to monitor my remote hosts versus using the
check_by_ssh command?
I'm aware that check_by_ssh increases the CPU overhead, but I'm not
clear on the level of impact here - does this increase the load on
I'm looking to monitor remote disk, cpu, mem etc and wondering if there's a way
to pick your crypto with nrpe like with nsca? Otherwise thinking check_by_ssh,
don't want to have to deal with all the keying. Is nrpe secure, if so
comparable to ssh?
Thanks,
Jim
