runas

[anonymous]

It would be great if i can run each command from the NRPE Handlers with a different user like runas. Not all commands runs proberly with user system that is used for NSClient++ service. The password for the user in NSC.ini should be encrypted.
I have tried some other tools like "Encrypted Runas" together with NSClient++, but found no solution and not very practical.

First off, this could be doable, the "hard thing" is to figure out to how to add "options" for it, the ini file is getting "filled up". but I think I could do a:

<command>=<the command>
<command>_user=<user>
<command>_password=<user>

As for encrypted, that is "impossible" (sort of) you could get them obfuscated, but since I need to "read them" it will be possible for others to do so as well (unless you do some "advanced" stuff). But perhaps you meant obfuscated?

Yes, you are right i meant obfuscated. Thanks

Wish runas too. It's possible to implement it with 0.3.4? ;-) CU

it would clobber down the settings subsystem too much so I would rather add it after the re-worked settings system in 0.4.x)
