===ipdiscover on SME===
We need to make ipdiscover working on SME.
+
IpDiscover is not working on SME. Please use another agent to ipdiscover your networks at the moment.
   −
no we don't, we've wasted enough time on this, just say to use a client (If they want to force discover)
+
I've opened a [http://forums.ocsinventory-ng.org/viewtopic.php?pid=5684#p5684 thread] on OCS forum.

Let's hope the next version will come out soon!

The password should be dynamical as this is a perl script. We need to use esmith::ConfigDB or something else to retrieve this value... I was unable to handle that.

==www/ocs/install.php bugs==
New doc, enjoy!
+
A problem was found in the default imported database. This ends with some ''alter'' errors. This can be fixed by refreshing the web page.
 +
 
 +
I took a look on ocsweb database with phpmyadmin before and after using install.php
 +
 
 +
I noticed that a lot of tables' ''engine type'' were ''MyISAM'' and after using install.php their type was ''InnoDB''!
 +
 
 +
So I tried to export a new database (this time with extended parameters), but this new database don't import in ocsweb database: it ends with errors trying to create the 1st table!
   −
=> Why do we need really an admin account? Why can't we use ocs?
+
Help needed!
If you encounter any problem with files insertion, try setting the global max_allowed_packet mysql value to at least 2M in your server config file.
  −
How to set this value for ocs only?
     −
=> install.php is needed, as you now know. But the file can be renamed or secured when not needed ;-)

I didn't use this screenshot finally... It shows default MaxUpload can be seen here & ocsagent.exe not present

==5.3.2 Deployment menu==
 +
 
 +
there must be a lot of ways this could be used,
 +
why make everyone think of them themselves when it could be spelled out
 +
 
 +
this could be a new page, [[:Application deployment]]
 +
 
 +
this could include other ways to deploy, eg using netlogon.bat
 +
 
 +
others can work on this cool34000 has done enough

Here's the way I've always used OCS... First I import the standard ''ocsagent.exe'' in MySQL.
   −
=future RPM=
+
I don't like to install a service when it's not needed, so I use the standalone executable. I also don't use OCS deployment feature (I'm using GPOs for that)
What will be fixed in next RPM release...
     −
==MaxUpload==
+
It is so fast to use against the need of installing the Agent: put OcsLogon.exe in a share folder and simply launch it with a one command line batch script each time a session is opened.
Default value will raise to 100M (OpenOffice ready)
+
@echo off
 +
\\server\share\mydomain.com.exe /np /debug /tag:my_tag
 +
That's all!
   −
==secure install.php==
+
Of course, more can be done...
What is the best way to secure this file?
  −
Move it?
  −
Rename it?
  −
chmod 400?
  −
If this file is secured, we need to document that in the article.
     −
==/download==
+
*Install the Agent silently in a script
Now that we know that the activation warning can be skipped, can we delete in ocs Apache template:
+
*Use GPOs (deploy, install, update)
<Directory /opt/inventory/ocs/download>
+
*Create your own ''ocsagent.exe''
  Options None
+
People need to read the guide! It's well documented.
-  Options +Indexes
  −
-  Options +Includes
  −
  AllowOverride None
  −
  order deny,allow
  −
  deny from all
  −
  allow from { $localAccess }
  −
  php_admin_value open_basedir /opt/inventory/ocs/download:/tmp
  −
</Directory>
  −
This will disallow files from being viewable (but still accessible for ocs?)
     −
This would be more secure if it works! Need to test that!
+
If someone can take some time to document that, it would be nice!

   −
just supply the .tar.gz
+
==glpi==
   −
add all the dependacies in smeserver-inventory-tools to make sure the user has installed them
+
someone who uses this may like to add some more information on how to  use it, some link to more docs at least
