RE: [Nagios-devel] Nagios and https

Post by Guest »

Ethan,

If you can spare us a couple of secs, can you let me know if you can do
anything about this? My prefered solutions would (obviously) be to use
relative pathing unless something prevents it. Should be easier as well I
guess?


Regards
Peter

I haven't done any research into the actual c code.. but based on your
symptoms, thats what I would expect to find is absolute URL calls. I'm not
sure it's a bug, just undesireable functionality. Maybe there should be a
configuration option or ./configure option that specifies you are using SSL
vs. non-SSL, or simply use relative pathing.
