[ossec-list] problem with key creation - dns/ip

2011-10-05 Thread Kat
any ideas why DNS name would not work and IP does? First auth request with DNS name fails. Double check that name translates, and put IP in, which works. Confused... --- # /var/ossec/bin/agent-auth -m ossec -p 1515 2011/10/05 08:41:32 ossec-authd: INFO: Started (pid: 5639).

apparently - after reading docs and source - it is not set to do lookups (authd) so we are stuck with IPs for this. Time for a patch.. ;-)

Just curious if anyone has a current spec file for agent and server for 2.6? All the ones I am finding are very old. A lot of changes have occurred and i don't want to re-invent the wheel if someone else has already done the work. thanks ~k

I have about 1000 AIX boxes with OSSEC - mostly 6.1 but about 100 5.3. Let me review my config - I build it on one server, then build the binary package to distribute to others. I will review it later today and post my findings and configs for you. cheers Kat On Jul 20, 7:55 pm, Jon Schipp

Agentless doesn't handle it - this is for a log file - agentless doesn't handle the log files, only file changes.. I have to do some more testing with logall - but there is no way to apply logall to a single localfile being monitored which is what I am looking for.
