I'm trying to implement ncsa which seems simple enough... except it's
not working.
I have made the passwords for both the client and server the same. The
ports are default. I am using the client as follows
check_test | send_nsca -H server -c /etc/nagios/send_nsca.cfg
0 data packet(s) sent to host successfully.
At first I thought it might be passwords so I've tried 3 different ones
on both sides, matched them exactly and eventually reduced then to 8
chars to be safe.
Then I put encryption=0 on both sides to try to see if even this would
work, but it didn't, same result.
So I netcatted the port on the server and got the following junk back:
# nc server 5667

What on earth is going on with NSCA?
I thought encryption=0 would send cleartext?
Any ideas?
Thanks
