Hi,

I'd like to know if there is any workaround for the issue of having multiple agents with the same ip causing those 'incorrectly formatted message' errors in the ossec logs. I have a remote ossec server which has some windows agents reporting into it from another location, but because they all are behind the same router they have the same ip address. For various reasons, it's not possible for me to put the ossec server on the inside of that network, so the next best thing was to have the agents report outside to a remote server. But it only works if there is just one agent from that ip.

One way I can think of is to keep a permanent vpn tunnel
established between the ossec server and the router with the windows agents behind it, that way they will have unique private ip addresses, but is there a simpler way to go about this? Any suggestions are welcome, so don't be shy! ;)
