Dear developers,<br>
<br>
Please check the new one from
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/pakdel/fusioninventory-agent-gui">https://github.com/pakdel/fusioninventory-agent-gui</a><br>
<br>
It was tested on the following Linuxes:<br>
PCLinuxOS i686, Qt 4.7.3 32-bit<br>
Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS i686, Qt 4.6.2 32-bit<br>
Ubuntu 11.04 x86_64, Qt 4.7.2 32-bit<br>
Slackware 13.37 x86_64, Qt 4.7.0 64-bit<br>
<br>
Since fusioninventory-agent_windows-i386_2.1.8-2.exe is 13MB, it
cannot be embedded as a Qt resource in windows as a big chunk! I
have even tried compiling it without optimization (with -O0 option
of the compiler) on a 64bit version of Windows 7 with 6GB of RAM an
I got the following error:<br>
cc1plus.exe: out of memory allocating 65536 bytes.<br>
<br>
Any idea? any suggestion?<br>
<br>
<br>
IMO fusioninventory-agent_windows-i386_2.1.8-2.exe needs a
command-line parameter to set the installation folder.<br>
If installation path of the agent can not be specified during
installation via command line, the "Files and Folders" tab can be
removed However, if the option of local agent execution on Linux
systems is kept, this tab might<br>
come in handy).<br>

Here, on my Linux, I get "Could not copy the embedded winexe
file into a<br>
regular file".<br>
The process failed to start. Either the invoked program is
missing, or you<br>
may have insufficient permissions to invoke the program.<br>

I also think the "Local Host" option should be turned off
since I run Linux.<br>

<div>It can be easily done but IMHO keeping the option of
local agent execution<br>
on Linux systems might be beneficial.<br>

Is it possible to declare a network range of machine? Is it
possible<br>
to use nmap to find the Windows host on the network? It's
maybe<br>
over complicated.<br>

This one accepts the following forms of remote windows host(s):<br>
<ul>
<li>Single host name: test.mycompany.com</li>
<li>Single host IP: 192.168.1.17</li>
<li>IP list: 192.168.1.16, 192.168.1.17, 192.168.1.18</li>
<li>IP range: 192.168.1.16 - 192.168.1.18</li>
<li>Network specified by subnet: 192.168.1.0 / 255.255.255.0</li>
<li>Network specified by CIDR: 192.168.1.0 / 24</li>
</ul>
<br>
As result, the following is a valid value for "Host(s)" in "Remote
host to be inventoried":<br>
test.mycompany.com, 10.10.2.26, 10.10.3.167, 192.168.1.0 /
255.255.255.0, 192.168.3.0 / 24<br>
<br>
Or even you can leave it to the application to sweep your entire
subnet by selecting "Try the entire network subnet". If you have
these network interfaces:<br>
eth0 inet addr:10.10.1.37 Bcast:10.10.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0<br>
eth0:1 inet addr:10.10.2.37 Bcast:10.10.2.255
Mask:255.255.255.0<br>
eth1 inet addr:10.10.3.37 Bcast:10.10.3.255 Mask:255.255.255.0<br>
lo inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0<br>
<br>
It would be the same as specifying the following as "Host(s)":<br>
10.10.1.37/24, 10.10.2.37/24, 10.10.3.37/24, <br>
The trailing "," would be ignored.

I think the "Files and Filders" tab can be removed too since
we don't use<br>
it.<br>

<div>If installation path of the agent can not be specified

Some of the messages need to be clarified. I suggest these
changes:<br>
<br>
"Server" tab → "Installation target"<br>
"Local Host" → Install the agent on this system<br>
"Remote Windows Host" → Install the agent on a remote
Windows Host<br>
using the RPC Service interface and the $Admin share
(PsExec).<br>
"Cancel" and "Perform Inventory" button location should be
switched and<br>
"Perform Inventory" should be in bold<br>
<br>
Changes on the "FusionInventory Server" should only used
during the installation<br>
and not be stored locally.<br>
</blockquote>
<div>Do you mean that the agent should be run with default
settings, without <br>
command line arguments?<br>
<br>

<br>
Any opinion?<br>
<br>
What you are doing here is just great and will quickly be a
much<br>
better alternative to<br>
the NSIS installer interface.<br>
