 | The OpenSSL implementation enables PC Agent sending of log-files via email with TLS encryption. OpenSSL is a freely available implementation of the SSL/TLS-protocol developed from Eric A. Young and Tim Hudson www.openssl.org.
Sending with TLS-encryption is especially appropriate, if on the computer to be monitored from a firewall (e.g. ZoneAlarm) or virus scanner (e.g. Norton AV) is installed with an email protection function. This function can block sending of emails. This is also applied for the log-files, that send from the monitoring-process per email.
However, this email-protection function it doesn't work in most cases if the emails send with TLS-encryption. So that PC Agent can send log-files per email with TLS-encryption, is only two things to heeds. - The both files (libeay32.dll und libssl32.dll) must exists in the system-directory (see Installation of OpenSSL).
- The SMTP-server, to which the emails should be sent, must supports TLS-encryption (see TLS Check).
Installation of OpenSSL Download and extract the file openssl.zip. Copy the both files (libeay32.dll and libssl32.dll) into the system-directory, which exists under Windows NT and 2000 in C:\WINNT\system32\ or under Windows XP in C:\Windows\system32\. TLS Check In order to find out, if the SMTP-server supports TLS-encryption, ask your email provider or download the following program: TlsCheck.exe. Start the program und enter the name of the SMTP-server, to which the emails should be sent. Afterwards, click on "Start". |
