ossec/etc/shared/agent.conf can help you configure agents from the
OSSEC server, but not all of the configuration options are available
there.
Edit the file on the OSSEC server, and it will be pushed to the
agents. You'll have to restart the agents after the file is updated,
but that's not too tough using active response.
