[Xymon] [External] Powershell client from external server

[Beck, Zak]

Hi Jason

The client does not support SSL/TLS directly. There was talk on the dev mailing list in 2015 of the server having TLS support built-in, I don’t know how far this got, whether it made it into a stable release and how easy it would be to adapt the Powershell client to use TLS. I think there are probably still questions over authentication (i.e. the message can be encrypted, but how do you determine it is from who it says it is from). Henrik would know.

I think the usual alternative advice is to use an intermediary such as stunnel, which I note does have a Windows port - https://www.stunnel.org/index.html.

Subject: [External] [Xymon] Powershell client from external server

Hi all,

I was just wondering if anyone had any step-by-step instructions or advise about sending the client data from the powershell client over a secure connection, we have a few external servers that we would like to start having their disk usage etc. sent back but would prefer if this was done over SSL or similar.

Kind Regards,
Jason.
