This answer is based on general principles and experiences, anyone on the forum can chime in. You could use stunnel, how messy or organized it will get is entirely up to you. you need to make sure your certificates are well managed, etc. You could also use ssh to tunnel the traffic. This very straight forward and quick to test. for example, you could run this on on the machine that will be your zenoss server $sudo ssh -N -T -f -L161:mytargethost:161 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (sudo is required for binding to a privileged port) you can then run $snmpwalk -v 1 -c community localhost
this is of course not going to get you where you want with hostnames, so you will need to compliment it with some iptables rules that way you could use the right hostnames.it will get ugly and it will at minimum be a maintenance nightmare. It might be easier to setup a VPN between your zenoss box and your target network. Can you share a little bit more about your network layout(without compromising your sensitive security of course) ------------------------ Mohamed Hussein -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://community.zenoss.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=4562#4562 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
