Any free software like OCS Inventory? (for F96-CE_4)

Post by Peinfull »

Hello.

Does anybody know about any free opensource software similar to OCS inventory that works on Puppy Linux?

For anybody wondering what OCS inventory does is from a web you can see all the data from any computer that's got the software on your net, like for example the software it's got installed, last time it was used, the last user that logged in it, etc.

Thank you.

Hello.

I've downloaded the OCS agent from github and unzipped it, but now when i try to install it using the console commands they put on github it's not working. Does it work diferently on Puppy Linux?

Thank you.

@Peinfull I have not tried this software, so I might be able to find some time to take a shot at getting it running.......

What version of Puppy Linux are you using?????????

Be specific with the name of it!!!!!

We need to always know this to give you good help.

In BookwormPup64 10.0.7 it has OCS as several different downloads in the Synaptic package manager.

Should be able to get it that way if you are using BookwormPup64.

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.

This is not what I expected :o

Hello, quick update.

Found the installer for ocs inventory agent on Package Manager Legacy.

Now it's installed but our server doesn't see the computer even though it's conected by RJ45 o the same switch, maybe now it's all up to make some configuration on our server.

Thank you all for your help.
