Nagios Support Forum

We are in the middle of migrating to RHEL 8 servers, and it was sad to see PHP 7.2 (known vulnerabilities) still bundled with Redhat OS bundle. After spending a fare amount of time manually upgrading to PHP 7.4.33 we now learn 7.4.x is being retired according to https://blog.remirepo.net/post/2022/1...

Nothing yet, looking at https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=61684&p=325867&hilit=HSTS#p325867 Nagios server isn't on the NSUS naughty list, and only the monitored Linux server with NCPA are being flagged as not having HSTS for the Nagios port. My SA sent me this today: ...

NESSUS scans reported issue with port 5639 not enforcing HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) on our Redhat servers with NCPA Is this a configuration setting somewhere in NCPA, or do we need to have the SA configure the server to enforce HSTS? Redhat 7.x Running NCPA 2.4.0 agents Nagios XI 5.9.1 Th...

I'm finding the "Manage Deployed Agents" feature useful (Thanks!) for finding and reporting on NCPA agents that require updates. We are also looking at Ansible to automate NCPA updates in the future. To keep this area updated, my thought is when the NCPA Wizard adds new monitored hosts, th...

Trying to get management to take a closer look at using Ansible, since it's Opensource, the only cost appears to be time unless we decide we need support.

Will take a little more work, but I think it will be worth it.

Thanks,

Craig

Due to our monitored servers not having internet access, I'm checking to see if the Nagios XI server can push a stored NCPA agent version to Windows and Linux servers for deployment? I looked at the main.yml file, but I'm not familiar with Ansible, my Linux SA doesn't believe the ROI is there to set...

Checking to see if there is a solution yet for deploying NCPA updates in an offline environment? (i.e. https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=61699&hilit=NCPA+internet) Working out the process for upgrading NCPA from 2.2.2 to 2.4.0 Can you please provide the reason for requiri...

My Linux Admin wasn't keen using CENTOS, so he did some searching and found a newer version of gd-devel on the redhat repo. "it was just right there available from Red Hat - you have to make sure your server has this repo ENABLED: rhel-7-server-optional-rpms" <<< Solution After the "g...

Did some more searching and found this: http://rpm.pbone.net/info_idpl_55225190_distro_redhatel7_com_gd-devel-2.0.35-26.el7.x86_64.rpm.html Appears there are requirements for gd-devel it may also need to install if we don't already have. Good thing we are using the test server! Take a snapshot... Re...

Appears the original post from Tom is also running Redhat 7.x, so your recommendation to pull the library from CENTOS repo may be helpful for both of us... Linux <hostname> 3.10.0-1160.45.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Sep 24 10:17:16 UTC 2021 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Li...
