Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

please can you help me out in order to check my ssl setting in nrpe agents on linux and windows in order to comply to pci requirements as it should use tlsv1 or higher and set the ciphers.

Thanks,
Ahmad

You'll probably want to be using NRPE v3 on the machine that needs to be PCI compliant. Here's documentation on how to build NRPE v3:

After NRPE v3 is all set up and ready to go, this document should help you make sure all communications are encrypted and require proper trust chains:

thanks for your reply

but what about windows clients as the NRPE v3 KB you have sent me is for UNIX/LINUX servers.

is there any updated NSClient for windows machines that complies with PCI.

Thanks,
Ahmad

We don't develop/maintain NSClient++ and as such can't make any particular compliance claims about the software. You'd be better off asking around that community:

It does have options for encryption, though. Passive checks via NSCA being one of them:

Did mcapra's post help you?
