Hello,

I am using ansible to auto deploy new systems and register with the ossec 
server.

I am running into an issue where after successfully running the agent-auth 
command, the new system appears in ossec server but any requests from the 
client are rejected by the server.  I have found that changing the servers 
etc/client.keys from any to the actual IP and restarting ossec fixes the 
problem.  Is there a work around for this?  Or is there an easy way to push 
keys into the client.keys file (I know the IP and client name but I don't 
know how to make the key that goes into client.keys)?

In my example, .116 is the new client, and .120 is the server


.116 )    /var/ossec/bin/agent-auth -m 10.0.253.120 1515

.120 )    cat etc/client.keys 
            1024 newclient any a87b4ab3b744fd4505445.....


.116 )     netcat -u 10.0.253.120 1514
            test

.120 )   tail logs/ossec.log
           2014/09/05 16:32:06 ossec-remoted(1213): WARN: Message from 
10.0.253.116 not allowed.



.120 )  vim etc/client.keys   # change any to the ip
          1024 newclient 10.0.253.116 a87b4ab3b744fd4505445.....

          service ossec restart 

.116)    netcat -u 10.0.253.120 1514
           test

.120 )   tail logs/ossec.log
           2014/09/05 16:35:51 ossec-remoted(1403): ERROR: Incorrectly 
formated message from '10.0.253.116'.


I am running ossec 2.8 on both server and agent.
