Hello everyone,
We are testing WAPT Enterprise on our network.
We are currently trying to create a "Custom" agent.
Since then, we have been experiencing strange behavior. A window pops up during installation requesting credentials for registering the computer with the WAPT server:
"Add_host"
Admin
Password.
We have never seen this window since the beginning of our tests. We don't understand the behavior of waptagent.exe.
Is it possible to disable this request?
[SOLVED] Add_Host when installing agent

Have you changed the server's authentication method?
Kerberos or login/password?
Kerberos or login/password?
So at first glance, no. No change in these values.
However, I modified the agent's initial configuration (from the console) to be able to "customize" the wapt-get.ini file on the workstations. (For the parameter use_repo_rules=0 to 1)
Maybe that's it...
I discovered a line in the waptserver.ini file:
I set the value to True for the test.
And now, the agent no longer asks me for authentication for the Add_host of a new machine

You made the correct diagnosis.
Indeed, it's controlled by allow_unauthenticated_registration (which is configured during postconf).
Perhaps a mistake was made?
