Post by morfeuski »

Hello,
we have enterprise version of hostmon. Our company use this solution in very complex environment. For this reason, we cannot use solution on this topic http://www.ks-soft.net/cgi-bin/phpBB/vi ... rtificates
We need test https with client certificate, but throughtout agent, not directly from hostmon. I adding UseLocalCertStore=1 to hostmon.ini and to rma.ini in section MISC, but i cant still use certificates in local computer store for authentication. The list of certificates is empty, if I want use agent rma.Please can you help to us?
Thx

Could you provide more information, please?
- What version of HostMonitor do you use?
- What version of RMA do you use?
- What Windows do you use? Service Pack?
- Is HostMonitor started as a service or as an application?
- Is RMA started as a service or as an application?
- What account do you use to start HostMonitor/RMA?

If you want to use RMA, certificates should be installed on the machine where RMA is running. By default, RMA/Hostmonitor selects available certificates from the user's store (user RMA/HostMonitor is running under). However, when you add UseLocalCertStore=1 option, certificates will be taken from local store ("Computer account") store. Sometimes it is requires, when HostMonitor/RMA is started as a service. Do you have any certificates on the machine, where RMA is running?

Regards,
Max
