Dear ladies and gentlemen,
30 minutes ago I noticed something very strange. I am monitoring a couple of dozens windows machines, with nsclient, no password, IP access check. Everything went smooth for a couple of months.
Today, all of a sudden, all nsclient services on windows started to give back the error message "NSClient: Wrong password". Some swift googling revealed that "-s None" to the command definition would solve the problem, and it did indeed, but I am still at loss regarding why all the nsclients got crazy at one moment after several months of good services. No configuration was being changed, it happened all by itself.
Since I have been able to solve that problem, this is not a plea for help, just sort of academic question: Anyone has an idea what might have happened?
