Configuration Planning

[Cory Clouse]

Ok, I am still pretty shallow into the subject so my questions may be a
little easy/un-researched.

 

1.       With nagios, are you supposed to define hosts in the cfg files
in a folder you have to create called objects? Or is this done through
the website through the asset page. 

 

2.       Also, I feel like my server is not communicating with my nagios
sensor. I was trying to test that by sending a command but I get the
"Sorry Dave" error. In regards to that, I had the use_authentication in
the cgi.cfg set to 0 just to test if I could send a command and I still
got that same error. So how do I set that up securely? What passwords
need to match where?

 

This will help me get started with the nagios configuration. If you have
any other suggestions or pointers they would be greatly appreciated

Thanks a lot,

Cory

Cory,

If you have specific questions about the nagios install on alienvault we
may be able to help you.  There is probably a different list that would
be better for these questions.

Hello,

This is my first time using AlienVault and I would really like some
directions to take for planning my system. I have tried picking function
by function to install but I cannot get anything working. I would really
appreciate someone telling me what I need to work on first so that I can
correctly walk through each specific task.

 

My plan is to have one central server which is hosted on a VM. This will
not have any sensors, just the framework, server, and the database. I
will also have two sensors with 2 network cards a piece. I want one of
them to do snort and then I want the other sensor dealing with nagios
and ntop.

 

Thanks
