Hello everyone,

I am testing WAPT at the company I work for.
It is currently fully functional on our infrastructure, but we installed it directly with the agent on a few workstations.

I would like to put it into production across our entire fleet but I have a problem with the deployment GPO available in the documentation.

So I successfully created a GPO following the wapt documentation on our Windows 2008 R2 server.

Computer GPO -> Policies -> Windows Settings -> Scripts -> Startup

waptdeploy.exe in my script folder and the parameters containing the information I retrieved from my wapt server:
--hash=(myhash) --minversion=1.7.4.6165 --wait=15

But I'm not getting any updates from my GPO. (My other GPOs are working without any problems)

I am reaching out to you for guidance on my problem; I have already looked at related topics, but it doesn't solve anything.
Help me! :D

Good morning,

By not explicitly specifying the WAPT agent download address as an argument (--waptsetupurl="http://xxxxxx/wapt/waptagent.exe"), the utility waptdeploy.exe will attempt to retrieve this address automatically via several DNS queries:
  • SRV type record _wapt._tcp
  • CNAME record at wapt.mydomain.com
  • Type A record at wapt.mydomain.com
If no DNS query returns a result, then the WAPT agent cannot be downloaded and installed on the machines.

Sincerely.

I just tried it by adding the argument --waptsetupurl

--waptsetupurl="http://10.8.100.40/wapt/waptagent.exe" --hash=monhash --minversion=1.7.4.6165 --wait=15

I still didn't have a positive result, but the script wouldn't run due to a permissions issue... :oops: Oops!

Thank you for your help
