How to deploy a package?

[elacheche]

Hey
I have succesfully create my OPSI package, but, I don't know how to deploy it!!??
The opsi-client-agent is installed on my client, I have select the package to be "setup" but nothing happens :/

Sorry for my bad English..

Assuming you set up your package to 'setup' and saved the configuration afterwards, you can

a. reboot your client machine. The agent will then detect the GUI startup and ask the server whether there is work to do.
b. go to the configed. Mark your client. Find the menu entry 'OPSIClient'.
Choose the second entry in the drop down menu (in English it's named 'Fire "on demand" event on selected clients')

Hi again XD
NETLOGON is working right now.. And I have this error when I chose the on demand event:

Code: Alles auswählen

xxxxx.xxxx.xx:	 [Errno -2] Name or service not known

PS: the x is the name of my client..

[uncle_scrooge]

OK, first of all, the netlogon service is not needed for the opsiclientd. I have three Windows Server 2008 R2 here without a running netlogon service, which work fine.
And, as you have already realized, the netlogon service runs only on machines which joined a domain.

[Errno -2] Name or service not known
I checked the german forum, and this error smells like a problem with name resolution.

Some questions.
What version of OPSI are you running? (If on Ubuntu/Debian, dpkg -l | grep opsi should do the trick).
Are your server and client on different subnets?
How is your DNS/DHCP config?

Maybe this will be of help:
viewtopic.php?f=7&t=1804&p=8993&hilit=Errno#p8993
It's in German, but I copied out the funny parts:

Edit /etc/opsi/opsiconfd.conf
[session]
update ip = yes

Restart opsiconfd
/etc/init.d/opsiconfd restart

Restart your client.

Thx for your answer uncle_scrooge

I'm using the latest version: 4.0.1

Are your server and client on different subnets?

No, they are in the same subnet..

How is your DNS/DHCP config?

Have no idea, I'm not the sysadmin, I'm a trainee..

Restart your client.

Thx for that
After doing that I have this error right now

Code: Alles auswählen

xxx.xxxxxx.xx:	 Opsi timeout error: Timed out after 15 seconds ([Errno 103] Software caused connection abort)

[uncle_scrooge]

Hm.
Back to square one.
Let's start simple:

On your client, the service 'opsiclientd' is running?
The IP address of your client is the one that is shown in the OPSI console?
From your client, you can ping your OPSI server by IP address and name?
From your client, you can successful telnet to your OPSI server (telnet <OPSI address> 4447)?
From your OPSI server, you can ping your client by IP address and name?
From your OPSi server, you can telnet to your client (telnet <client address> 4441)?
