I’ve made the hole in the remote router’s firewall for the default port 20012
I’ve made the changes to AgentConfig.ini Protocol: SSH Port 20012 User/group type: SAClient IP Range: 192.168.2.4 – 192.168.2.4 User Name: *** Password: *** I don’t know what to do with tcpconfig.ini. Restart Woodstone’s Remote Agent for Windows I then went into Setup on SA and configured Agents (for remote Agent Checks) Host: x.x.x 97 Port 20012 Protocol: SSH Timeout: 0 Username: matches above Password: matches above Description I then created a new entry Server Name: x.x.x.97 (matches Host field above) Check tab Check to use: Remote Agent Check Select from list what I created above Press the configure button. With all that configured I get “Error: The current connection has timeout” -courtney From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:sal...@woodstone.nu] On Behalf Of Dirk Bulinckx Sent: Thursday, September 16, 2010 10:31 PM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: RE: [SA-list] Understanding Remote Agents Servers Alive connects to the Remote Agent and requests info from the Remote Agent. So on the firewall/router of net Remote Agents network you have to have an open inbound port. On the system running the Remote AGent there is an ini file contain the agent configuration. Using the AgentConfigManager (on the same system) you can open this INI and make change to it's config. (username/password/allowed IPs/port/…). If you do change some of the parameters, make sure to restart the Agent AND to adapt within Servers Alive to connection parameters for that agent too. dirk From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:sal...@woodstone.nu] On Behalf Of Courtney Kibbe Sent: Friday, September 17, 2010 2:31 AM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: [SA-list] Understanding Remote Agents I’m not understanding how the remote agents works or how to configure it. Is there any documentation on it, other than the on-line manual? Do I need to open an inbound port on the remote router, 20012? Can the user name and password be changed? My understanding was that I can install the agent on a remote server and it would send information to Servers Alive, such as it’s on-line. -courtney To unsubscribe send a message with UNSUBSCRIBE in the subject line to salive@woodstone.nu If you use auto-responders (like out-of-the-office messages), make sure that they are not sent to the list nor to individual members.
