the xymonnet binary. You can compile xymon with openssl enabled, then just manually copy the xymonnet file into $XYMONHOME/bin. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>You'll want to make a copy of the old xymonnet file before doing this as a backup. Probably you'll also need to match your existing environment (path for XYMONHOME, etc as per the xymon configuration script) - safer that way.<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Another way would be to write an ext script that calls external programs to do the testing - a lot more work but could be done.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Hello Jeremy,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you for getting back on this. I am trying to enable monitoring probes of other servers that runs on HTTPS Services to do the health checks. I didn't install the xymon in the existing environment, Looks like who ever did they didn't include Openssl-Devel
package. I dont wannt to recompile/reinstall the existing Xymon as we already in production. It would be helpful if I can make any config changes to achieve the HTTPS functionality. Hope this explains my problem. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please feel free to reach me if any concerns. Once again I really appreciate your efforts on responding to the issue. Looking forward to here from you.</div>

<div>Hello Xymon Team,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I would like to enable SSL on XYMON Server to support https requests. As I am seeing connection time out errors for HTTPS URL's. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Our configuration supports HTTP perfectly fine and for your information it is in production and live, so we don't want to do reinstall of Xymon servers. Rather than is there any configuration changes we can make on existing configs and do the server restart??</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Xymon Version we are using </div>
<div>
<div>Xymon version 4.3.7</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I just installed Openssl </div>
<div>
<div>OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips 11 Feb 2013</div>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Please let me know if any concerns.</div>

<div>Just to be clear, are you asking about enabling HTTPS connections to the webserver that is used to present the Xymon pages? Or enabling monitoring probes of other servers that run HTTPS services? <span style="line-height:1.5">All assume you mean the
latter.</span></div>
<div><span style="line-height:1.5"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="line-height:1.5">How did you install Xymon? Did you install from a package, or compile from source code? If the latter, then you probably need to re-compile Xymon so that it can include support for OpenSSL. Also, if you installed OpenSSL
from a package, make sure you have the "openssl-devel" package installed as that is required for other programs to link against the OpenSSL libraries at compile time.</span></div>
<div><span style="line-height:1.5"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="line-height:1.5">I think the only binary that uses OpenSSL is xymonet, so you might be able to get away with only replacing this binary.</span></div>
