I have developed some more of the installation functionality.
Currently the GUI does the following:

    * If it is running on a non-Windows (Unix/Linux) system:
          o If local Inventory fails, it asks for a file that contains a
            'Standalone distribution' and installs it where indicated in
            the GUI (lineEditAgentUnix in "Files and Filders" tab) and
            then retries the agent execution.
          o If remote Windows inventory fails, it tries to install the
            agent on the remote windows host using the installation file
            indicated in the GUI (lineEditInstWin in Installation tab)
            and then retries the remote agent execution.
          o Remote Unix / Linux inventory is not implemented yet.
    * If it is running on a Windows system:
          o If local Inventory fails, it tries to install the agent
            using the installation file indicated in the GUI
            (lineEditInstWin in Installation tab) and then retries the
            remote agent execution.
          o Remote Windows inventory (using PsExec) is not implemented yet.
          o Remote Unix / Linux inventory is not implemented yet.


I think remote Unix/Linux inventory/installation can be done using 
libssh. Any opinion?


Cheers,
Amir
