Still running Xymon 4.2.3 so...
I have a need to do a content test on an https url on a dev server that has self signed certificates. The customer just wants Xymon to get through to the first page and check the content without having to mess with the certificate. I thought putting nosslcert on that host would do the trick, but I couldn't see that it changed anything on the resulting page.
nosslcert turned the sslcert icon purple, but it didn't change the behavior of the content test.
We want to be able to skip the ssl warning and the need to click to proceed to the page. Apparently curl, wget and nagios all have options to do this (although I haven't actually tested that on nagios) so I'd be surprised if Xymon doesn't.
Is there another way to do that?
Thanks, Steve
