[smokeping-users] Master - Slave Config problem

Thu May 17 13:35:47 CEST 2012

Hello,

Have you set your permissions on /var/smokeping/secret.txt to 777 or similar ?, you need to alter the ownership and permissions on this file to ensure it is secure.

Subject: [smokeping-users] Master - Slave Config problem

Hello All,

I'm not able to finish the config of a Master - Slave pair of Smokeping.

Master is working fine while the slave configuration is not working with the below eror:
ERROR: the shared secret file (/var/smokeping/secret.txt) is world-readable or writable at /usr/share/perl5/Smokeping.pm line 4109.

Please help me and let me know if you need more info
