Today Tripwire has released ConfigCheck for ESX 3.0 to complement our coverage of ESX 3.5.One of the most frequent requests we had concerning Tripwire ConfigCheck was the ability to monitor 3.0. Wanting to make sure that ESX 3.0 admins had the same capabilities to ensure secure configuration of the Hypervisor against the VMware Hardening Guidelines, we added 3.0.x support. In addition, we updated the supporting remediation advice for 3.0 detailing all the steps, if different from ESX 3.5, to get the configurations up to a known and trusted state.
It is available now for download at: www.tripwire.com/configcheck.
I have read about Tripwire Config check for ESX on Virtualizaiton Team earlier I thought it was free just as stated on your blog, but then discovered only a limited version is what goes for free. Am I missing anything or did they change that?
