[SOLVED] Procedure for creating a Linux Ubuntu agent

Good morning

I'm desperately trying to create a Linux agent, but the procedure in the documentation is broken (even the command...).

Code: Select all

wget -O - https://wapt.tranquil.it/$(lsb_release -is)/tiswapt-pub.gpg  | apt-key add -
It's malfunctioning because there's no file https://wapt.tranquil.it/Ubuntu/tiswapt-pub.gpg).

Then, even after trying to tinker with it, nothing worked.

It would be good to have a procedure that works :)

Sincerely,
Tom

Great, I'll test it today and I'll give feedback (positive or negative, depending) :)

Well, I can confirm that the procedure is now working.

Just a quick note: when using Ubuntu, you normally can't log in as root via SSH. However, the command

Code: Select all

wget -O - https://wapt.tranquil.it/$(lsb_release -is)/tiswapt-pub.gpg  | apt-key add -
Can only be executed as root, so you need to switch to superuser mode using, for example, the command

Code: Select all

sudo bash
Anyway, thank you!

Well, for sudo, I was planning to leave that to the discretion of the sysadmin... ;-)

I added it in case someone else has the question :-) (pushed locally internally).
