Resolution
Agents can be deployed only manually on these computers.
When planning for installation directory, consider that an agent requires minimum 40 Mb of disk space (50 Mb recommended).
To install an agent, complete the following steps:
1. Log in to the target computer.
2. Copy the adcscm_package.linux_intel.sh installation script to a local folder on the target computer.
3. Start the script:
./adcscm_package.linux_intel.sh
4. You will be prompted to supply the path to installation directory:
Enter the base directory:
5. After the installation, the agent will be started automatically.
To uninstall an agent from the Linux computer, run the following script from the agent working directory:
./Uninstall.sh
Establishing Connection with Server
To establish connection between an agent and an InTrust server, log on to the computer where the agent is installed using the root account and run following commands:
adcscm -add ServerName Port
where:
- ServerName specifies the InTrust Server to which you bind the agent (may be either the NetBIOS name, FQDN, or IP address);
- Port specifies the port number at which the server listens to the requests coming from the agent (that is the same as the listening port you specified for InTrust server during setup); the default port number is 900
- Password is the password for initial agent-server authentication; it is required if the Use authentication option is enabled on the InTrust server (see Authentication).By default this password is the same as the organization password supplied during InTrust Server installation (you can change the agent installation password in InTrust server properties). If you want to use an empty password, supply empty quotation marks (""). If authentication is disabled on the InTrust server, do not specify any password.
