As far as I know, nrpe supports   Althought not exactly authentication, you can configure NRPE via tcp wrappers or its own internal configuration to only accept connections  from a given set of hosts. What sort of attack are you worried about that isn't covered by tcpwrappers? -Jason Martin I don't think Nagios will ever be our worst security hole... That said, with a B-class fully switched network tcp-wrappers are of little use... I would have slept more comfortably with x509 :) Bye,   Giovanni _________________________________ Giovanni Clemente DEIS - Lab2 tel. 051 20 93890 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I miei molteplici impegni...
