==GLPI Description==
GLPI is the Information Resource-Manager with an additional Administration- Interface. You can use it to build up a database with an inventory for your company (computer, software, printers...). It has enhanced functions to make the daily life for the administrators easier, like a job-tracking-system with mail-notification and methods to build a database with basic information about your network-topology.

=Download=
You can download this package ''[http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/sgomez/contribs/inventory/smeserver-inventory-tools-1-1.i386.rpm here]''. You will also need ''[http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/sgomez/contribs/inventory/dependencies/ocs_perl_deps.tar.gz a few dependencies]''.
If you want to save it directly on your SME Server, you can give these commands at the prompt:
wget http://mirror.contribs.org/smeserver/contribs/sgomez/contribs/inventory/dependencies/ocs_perl_deps.tar.gz

==OCS Agent Linux for SME 7.x==
The client-side of OCS will already be installed if you install ''smeserver-inventory-tools''.
You should see an inventory of your SME Server in OCS web interface after the RPM install.
If you want to inventory other SME Servers (without installing the server-side and web interfaces), you only need following packages in the dependencies tarball:
*monitor-edid-1.11-1.el4.remi.i386.rpm
*ocsinventory-agent-0.0.6-1.el4.remi.noarch.rpm
*ocsinventory-ipdiscover-1.01-2.el4.remi.i386.rpm
Then edit ''/etc/ocsinventory-agent/ocsinv.conf'' and modify following lines:
OCSSERVER=yourdomain.com
OCSTAG=your_tag
Then restart crond as this isn't done by these RPMs:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/crond restart
And finally launch the 1st inventory manually:
ocsinventory-agent -s yourdomain.com -t your_tag
==GLPI Description==
==OCS Agent for Windows==
Under Windows, once the Agent is installed, you can make inventories by typing the following in the 'execute box':
"C:\Program Files\OCS Inventory Agent\OCSInventory.exe" /server:yourdomain.com /np /debug /tag:your_tag
Wait a few seconds and go to http://your-server/ocs, you should see your computer's inventory!
