| This program is designed to accept passive service check results |
| from clients that use the send_nsca utility (which is included in |
| this package) and pass them along to the Nagios process by using |
| the external command interface. The program can either be run as a |
| standalone daemon or as a service under inetd. If you have |
| libmcrypt installed on your systems, you can choose from multiple |
| crypto algorithms (DES, 3DES, CAST, xTEA, Twofish, LOKI97, |
| RJINDAEL, SERPENT, GOST, SAFER/SAFER+, etc.) for encrypting the |
| traffic between the client and the server. Encryption is |
| important in this addon, as it prevents unauthorized users from |
| sending bogus check results to Nagios. Read the included SECURITY |
| document for more information. |
| |
| This package provides the send_nsca utility running on the client. |

| <use> |
| <flag name="crypt"> |
| Build support for crypted communication with nsca, through |
| <pkg>dev-libs/mcrypt</pkg>. It's recommended not to disable this |
| flag unless all the communication will be handled in an |
| absolutely safe environment. |
| </flag> |
| <flag name="minimal"> |
| Only build and install the send_nsca command and not the |
| daemon. This allows a very minimal install with no overhead when |
| setting up a node. |
