I am not familiar with your current error message.

Onderwerp: RE: OpenVAS9 master/slave setup...

Hoi Thijs,

The verify scanner config test informs me that 'Scanner has been verified' and 
when I go into the configuration of the scanner, it shows me the following:

[cid:[email protected]]

Now, weirdly enough (after a reboot of both nodes) the error message about "the 
certificate hasn't got a known issuer " is gone, and the openvasmd.log (on the 
slave) now shows the following when I initiate a scan (from the master to the 
slave):

md    omp:   INFO:2017-11-17 10h15.32 utc:15657:    Failed to parse client XML: 
Error on line 1 char 2: ' ' is not a valid character following a '<' character; 
it may not begin an element name

Any idea what this could imply?

Thanks for your help!

When creating the New Scanner on the master to configure the slave scanner, did 
you upload the slave's CA certificate? See the screenshot on the site.

Onderwerp: [Openvas-discuss] OpenVAS9 master/slave setup...

Hello everybody,

I'm running OpenVAS9 and am trying to configure a master/slave combination, so 
I followed the instructions in the following post but am running into (what I 
think) are certificate issues:
https://blog.haardiek.org/setup-openvas-as-master-and-slave.html

I see the following messages in the master logs:
lib  serv:  DEBUG:2017-11-15 14h13.40 UTC:2667:    Connected to server 
'172.X.X.X' port 9391.
lib  serv:  DEBUG:2017-11-15 14h13.40 UTC:2667:    Shook hands with server 
'172.X.x.X' port 9391.
lib  serv:WARNING:2017-11-15 14h13.40 UTC:2667: openvas_server_verify: the 
certificate is not trusted
lib  serv:WARNING:2017-11-15 14h13.40 UTC:2667: openvas_server_verify: the 
certificate hasn't got a known issuer
md manage:WARNING:2017-11-15 14h13.40 UTC:2667: slave_connect: failed to open 
connection to 172.X.X.X on 9391

Now, if I check the certs on the slave, all seems well:
root@DMZ-NVT-01:~# openvas-manage-certs -V
OK: Directory for keys (/var/lib/openvas/private/CA) exists.
OK: Directory for certificates (/var/lib/openvas/CA) exists.
OK: CA key found in /var/lib/openvas/private/CA/cakey.pem
OK: CA certificate found in /var/lib/openvas/CA/cacert.pem
OK: CA certificate verified.
OK: Certificate /var/lib/openvas/CA/clientcert.pem verified.
OK: Certificate /var/lib/openvas/CA/servercert.pem verified.
OK: Your OpenVAS certificate infrastructure passed validation.

Same for the master, the checks are fine:
root@Ubuntu-OpenVAS:/var/log/openvas# openvas-manage-certs -V
OK: Directory for keys (/var/lib/openvas/private/CA) exists.
OK: Directory for certificates (/var/lib/openvas/CA) exists.
OK: CA key found in /var/lib/openvas/private/CA/cakey.pem
OK: CA certificate found in /var/lib/openvas/CA/cacert.pem
OK: CA certificate verified.
OK: Certificate /var/lib/openvas/CA/servercert.pem verified.
OK: Certificate /var/lib/openvas/CA/clientcert.pem verified.
OK: Your OpenVAS certificate infrastructure passed validation.

Any advice on how to debug/tackle/solve this problem?

PS: I've noticed that in the GUI of the master, the following message is 
displayed, not sure if this is related?:

"Certificate currently in use will expire"
