NSCA 1.9.1 and NSClient++ 0.3.9

Post by estebanmonge »

Hello I have NSCA 1.7.2 in my server, works great with nsclient++, also have GNU/Linux send_nsca.sh.

I am very interesting in 1.9.2 for the memory leaks... and the performance. I want upgrade to NSCA 1.9.2.

send_nsca 1.7.2 send great the messages. But NSClient++ not. When one package arrives from NSClient++ machine the Connection is dropped. The message is:

"Dropping packet with invalid CRC32 - possibly due to client using wrong password or crypto algorithm?"

With 1.7.2 work without modifications, but with 1.9.1 show the "bad message", I thin may be if a error of NSClient++ because only drops the packages from it, with send_nsca in GNU/Linux all its ok.

Where I can report these bugs?

I haved reported the problem also to NSClient++ people, can read more (the same =$) in: http://nsclient.org/nscp/ticket/506

Take care

Great, the people of NSClient++ answer me and put the next advice:

Code: Select all

Do you mean 2.9? I noticed it uses a larger packet size from what I can understand... So you need to reconfigure the payload size...

0.4.0

[/settings/nsca/client/targets/default]
host=192.168.0.1
password=secret
encryption=none
time offset=-1h
payload length=4096

0.3.9

[NSCA Agent]
...
string_length=4096
I will try the fix!!!
