Hi Johan

 

Will check it out. Is there any other alternatives? I just need to have a plan A,B and C  to present to the bean counters.

Would it be possible to set up VPN:s to the remote locations? That way you can have a secure connection over the internet, transparent to Xymon. There are a number of free solutions available, i.e. OpenVPN.

Hi XyMonsters!

 

I need to monitor several satellite sites with XyMon. These sites are not available on our local LAN so I have to go via the internet. I am a bit hesitant to open the ports etc since the information collected can be used in foot printing the system. How would I go about securing the service so that xymons information does not fall into the wrong hands?

 

 

Regards

Neil
