Thanks for cleaning this up!

Your comments are on my todo's list ;-)

Can you confirm that ipdiscover works on your install?

As I used 3 PCs to get ipdiscover info, I didn't test only with SME enabled.

Try the following:

ipdiscover eth0 10

	Note:
	Usage : ipdiscover [iface name] [latency in ms]

Here's what I got on my server:

<IPDISCOVER>
<H>192.168.0.100<M>00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx</M><N>pc-00100.mydomain.com</N></H>
<H>192.168.0.253<M>00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx</M><N>pc-00253.mydomain.com</N></H>
<H>192.168.0.254<M>00:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx</M><N>pc-00254.mydomain.com</N></H>
</IPDISCOVER>

Sounds like it's working for me...

ipdiscover looks to be working here also, maybe it was operator error ?

Draft steps for deployment

Installed a cacert certificate eg. http://wiki.contribs.org/Custom_CA_Certificate 
copy the domain.crt from cacert to cacert.pem in the client ocs folder
(this is the public key right ??)

deploying => Activate => activate package
complains that the directory and info files don't exist,
I think we should just ignore the activate error, the files are visible from clients

deployed a file, optional, run a client update and it is now aware of the update

in => Package activation
when you delete a package, ocs complains, but it deletes the files anyway, document later
ERROR: Can't delete directory /opt/inventory/ocs/download/1194356189
