NetXMS Support Forum

Would you please consider adding in nested group membership support for the LDAP Sync feature for Active Directory users?

AD supports Rule OID 1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941 (LDAP_MATCHING_RULE_IN_CHAIN) which is a special extended match operator that walks the chain of ancestry in objects all the way to the root until it finds a match (Requires DN).

We use it for our LdapSearchFilter already for importing users in nested groups, eg:
(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(memberOf:1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941:=CN=ACL-NetXMS-Users,OU=ACL,DC=example,DC=local))

-but, of course, this filter alone does't help when it comes to user membership of imported groups. Maybe it could be configured as a flag in Server Configuration that changes the group membership behaviour? I think LDAPConnection::updateMembers is responsible and would need to be changed?

In NXShell, would you please consider implementing a AbstractObject.setStatusPropagationMethod or Interface.setStatusPropagationMethod method, or some other implementation that allows us to set status propagation, to allow for things like setting the status propagation of interfaces? Setting this up manually for many interfaces over many nodes is very tedious.

Someone else was, more or less, asking about this back in 2013 as well.

Trying to upgrade from NetXMS 2.2.3 to 2.2.6, I'm up to the stage where I'm upgrading the database (MariaDB/MySQL) but:

QuoteC:\NetXMS\bin>nxdbmgr.exe upgrade
NetXMS Database Manager Version 2.2.6 Build 9513 (2.2.6) (UNICODE)

Upgrading database...
Upgrading from version 22.20 to 22.21
SQL query failed (Duplicate column name 'zone_uin'):
ALTER TABLE alarms ADD zone_uin integer
Rolling back last stage due to upgrade errors...
Database upgrade failed

It appears all the GPG and MD5 links (Except for NetWare and IPSO agents) on https://www.netxms.org/download/ result in 404. Mobile Agent and Console APKs results in 404 too.

Eg: https://www.netxms.org/download/releases/2.2/2.2.2/netxms-2.2.2-x64.exe.asc results in 404

Also, the NetXMS Security Officer GPG key (B18B FBBC 6055 23AF 1AA0  7263 236B 4AEF 508E E698) is getting a quite old (2005) and doesn't follow best practice, maybe it's time to create some new modern keypairs? I think it's time to also move to, at least, SHA256 instead of MD5 given the demonstrated issues inherent in MD5.

How can we add TLS/SSL support to Jetty9 for the Web UI? I have a Java keystore but I can't work out how to adjust the Procrun parameters and/or make the correct Jetty XML files. Running NetXMS on Windows.

In NXShell, can you please overload NXCObjectModificationData.setIpAddress to allow passing a InetAddressEx (or even InetAddress) instead? NXCObjectCreationData.setIpAddress supports InetAddressEx, not sure why NXCObjectModificationData doesn't?

I understand there are pinned threads like those in General Support but I think more organised and serious approach to having a repository of Templates, Scripts, MIBs, useful Third Party Tools and snippets would increase NetXMS's utility even more.

We've been evaluating many different solutions for years and NetXMS really does compete in functionality but is lacking in terms of pre-made content for common scenarios, I'd love for better ways to working on shared solutions than just pinned threads. Maybe a dedicated board?

PRTG's SSL Certificate Sensor and SSL Security Check Sensor are really helpful. Would be great to see equivilent functionality in NetXMS natively.

SNMP_VarBind's valueAsMac displays my OID's octet string value just how I need it but I'm trying to obtain this MAC address formatted string from a value within an SNMP DCI Table's Transformation script. How can I display a SNMP Table value as a MAC address in the same way as SNMP_VarBind's valueAsMac?

How do you use FindObject and FindNodeObject functions properly in a Script from the Script Library executed from Server Console when CheckTrustedNodes is 1? All I ever get is null. I can't pass in another node because I can't fetch any nodes and passing null doesn't work.

DELL-REF-MIB reports that dellLanExtension isn't defined but I'm including Dell-Vendor-MIB which does define it and that seems to parse correctly.

MIBs source is contained in Release 6.2.7.2-mibs within this firmware ZIP. Sorry, that's just how they package it seems.

I was hoping to write a script to create new SNMP Traps and corresponding events but the Scripting Guide on the wiki is a little light on details. Is this possible? Are there any scripts out there I can work from or some more documentation?
