opsi-client-agent – How do I connect a Windows client to my opsi server?

[AiBuzz]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to manually set up the opsi-client-agent on a Windows client and connect it to my opsi server (running on Linux), but I’m stuck on the configuration step. I have set up repositories on my server and want to see the files I'm currently offering.

So far, I have:

Successfully installed the client

Verified that the opsiclientd service is running

Located and opened the opsiclientd.conf file with administrator privileges

My problem:
I’m not sure what exactly I need to configure inside opsiclientd.conf to connect the client to the server.

Some questions:

What should I put under the [global] section? Just the server’s IP or FQDN?

Do I need to disable certificate verification if I’m using a self-signed cert? If so, where do I put that?

After saving the file, do I need to restart the service manually every time?

Is there anything I need to do on the server side (firewall, port, opsi settings) to allow the connection?

Right now the opsi Client Kiosk on the Windows machine doesn’t show anything, and trying to access https://<server-ip>:4447/rpc in the browser doesn't work either.

Also is there an easier way to do this? Because if we will use Opsi I'd need to do this on 5000 devices, which is not possible.

Any help or example config snippets would be really appreciated!

Best regards,
Patrick

Hello,

Please avoid manually editing the "opsiclientd.conf" file.

To install the opsi-client-agent, use the installer available at:
https://<opsi-server>:4447/public/opsi-client-agent/

For detailed instructions, refer to the official documentation:

https://docs.opsi.org/opsi-docs-en/4.3/ ... stallation

Ensure that port 4447 on the opsi server is accessible from all clients.

If you’re unable to access https://<opsi-server>:4447, verify that the "opsiconfd" service is running on the opsi server by executing:

Code: Alles auswählen

opsiconfd status

Additionally, make sure that firewalls are configured to allow traffic to and from port 4447.


Best regards

There does seem to be any other issue. I can upload files via the agent console, but it does not show me my repo which is clearly active. It also shows me the packets that are configured when looking it up in the console.

May someone look over my configuration, maybe via Zoom call or BBB?
