Traffic between server and client encrypted?

[sparkey]

Hi,

I have recently installed nagios3 using aptitude on SERVER01 and nagios-nrpe-plugin on SERVER02.

Is the traffic being sent between these two machines encrypted with ssl or something or is there any setting that i need to apply?

Thanks!

NRPE traffic is usually encrypted with SSL unless you call check_nrpe with the -n option or compile NRPE without the proper SSL library headers.

Okey, thanks for your answer!

I did not build from source. I installed using aptitude (apt-get) so it should be fine?

Yep, you should be fine.
