What is rainstall.exe?

$
0
0

What exactly is rainstall.exe, and what all does it do?  I'm assuming that the ra stands for Resident Agent?  We use Cisco Security Agent (CSA), which is similar to LANDesk's HIPS product, and CSA has started blocking rainstall.exe.  Our security guys are all flipping out about it and want to know exactly what rainstall.exe is/what it does.  The reason they're flipping out about it is because previously it was being executed by another LANDesk executable, residentagent.exe (which was allowed by CSA).  Now since upgrading 8.8 to SP3 rainstall.exe is trying to be executed by an "unknown process" so CSA is blocking it.


Common Base Agent Not Loaded

$

Having a problem with the common base agent not loading onto some of our servers(Server 2003 and Server 2008). Does anyone have any idea why the agent would not be able to load from the deployment. We tried doing it through Unmanaged Device Deployment and through loading the agent directly on the server.

 

See attached image for details.

 

 

Thanks in Advance,

Query for LANDesk version

$

0

I am doing an agent install for 8.80 SP2A.  So I created a query based on who needed the patch, no problem.

 

Then I summed up those who have with those who needed and I didn't come up with all my devices.

 

Now I'm wondering if all the users didn't get SP2 and are on SP1

 

Can I create a query to find out what version of the agent is installed?

 

Thank you,

Cannot find agent

Hello. I am currently running Landesk 8.7  Recently we pushed a bunch of Microsoft patches to about 1500 remote clients running XP with SP2.  The firewall has been disabled on all. More than half the patches failed reporting that they "Cannot find agent" and/or "Cannot find agent (different agent responded"

 

 

Can anyone help me interpret that error message?

 

 

Thanks!

 

 

Agent deployment to an iMac failed - code 1026

$
0
0

Let me preface this by saying my company is new to LDMS & I am a novice at all of this...

 

We are currently on v9.0 sp1 and are having problems with the Macs used on our network.  Not only are we unable to discover unmanaged Mac devices, when I manually added my iMac to experiment with, I was not able to push the client to it.  "Failed...  A problem occurred while attempting to launch the task on the client...  (code) 1026"

 

There aren't many options available when setting up a 'Mac agent configuration', so I think it's OK...  I dragged my device onto the task & had it 'start now'.  I watched - at both the LD console as well as the iMac itself - as it was attempting to install the client.  On the console side, it looked OK as it went through the process - ie. pending, 1 machine, active, etc.  But on the iMac itself, I saw absolutely nothing happening.  (Is this normal?)

 

I tried searching both the user community and support documentation but found nothing more on that error code, so am left not knowing what to try next.  Any thoughts or suggestions on how to make device discovery &/or agent deployment work on Macs would be welcomed.

Agent configuration update error (no available certificate)

Everytime I make a change to the default Windows Remote Agent I get an error that says  "there is no available certificate". Does anyone know how to fix this? I still seem to connect to my users for remote control.

9.5 - LANDesk Agent Deployment Upgrade "Agent setup program returned an error" (Push Deployment)

$
0
0

Upgraded agents from 9.0SP3 to 9.5AllPatches and a good portion of the agents failed to update during the push deployment. The error received in the scheduled tasks window is "Agent setup program returned an error". I remember seeing this occasionaly the last time we did a deployment but rerunning the task on the computers that had failed generally came back successful. Not the case with 9.5.

 

Every machine that fails has the same symptoms, which leads me to beleive they are failing for the same reason. If you check the services on a computer that had a failed installation, the ONLY landesk services that are present are "LANDesk Targeted Multicast" and "LANDesk(R) Management Agent". A way to repair the agent on the computer, is that I can run Uninstallwinclient.exe then install the agent manually with a self contained exe and the installer goes through just fine. The problem is I cannot afford to do this on every single computer that has failed. I am still working on a way to identify all of the agents that did not install correctly. At the moment I am considering a loginscript vbs file that checks for the existance of the core landesk services.

 

I have attached the wscfg32.xlg file with the hops that someone can point out why the agent install is failing on so many machines. If any other information is needed please let me know.

CBA 8, unable to contact the remote agent

I have a machine that has agent installed fine, is displaying in the all devices. However i have noticed that the remote agent control status has not been loaded. When i run a scan from the machine itself it seems to work and data has been sent to the core server. When i run a scan from the LDMS server console it fails- cba8, unable to contact the remote agent

 

 

when i do a repair job it says straight away- Cannot Find Agent

 

 

The agent has been removed and re-installed. Same agent version as other machines.

 

 

i have re ran the cba8inst.msi file no issues.

 

 

Cant do any repair jobs or scans from the LDMS?!?!?

 

 

Any help would be appreciated. **(FYI-im away next week so no reponse until the following week)**

 

 


How do we remove an agent?

$
0
0

I've been thru the manual, and can only find 1 or 2 instances of "remove agent", and hundreds of instances of either word by itself.

 

We have one user who is being harrassed by LD.  Every day LD wants to install some update/patch...even after we apply everything there is to apply manually, using remote control.

 

We don't know specifically what it's trying to install.  We thought for the moment that we'd just remove the agent.  But we don't know how.  I had seen LANDesk listed under Add/Remove SW on my PC, but when I connected to his, it wasn't there.  We're assuming that my LANDesk listing was for the console, rather than for the agent.

 

Thanks in advance for the assistance,

How to deploy Batch file to run windows command?

"Bogus" Core Server is listed in addition to regular Core Server

We recently upgraded to LANDesk 9.5.  We have a new server and did a clean install of LANDesk 9.5, including the SQL Express database--basically started from scratch. Our core server is called S21.

 

An odd this has happened. In my Network View under All Devices I see two Core Servers:

 

Server A:    S21 is shown as a server and has an IP address of 10.1.3.1 - this server shows a status of being powered off in LANDesk.

Server B:   S21 is shown as a workstation and has an IP address of 10.1.3.48

 

Server B is the Core Server. That is, the 10.1.3.48 is the static IP address configured on the machine. It has Server 2008 R2 installed.

 

The IP address for Server A is not on our network. It cannot be pinged. It was not issued via DHCP.

 

Patching is bizarre. If I right click on Server B I see many patches. I configure them as a task. Run the task. Both A and B show up in the task. A will be successful and B will fail.

 

Any idea what I should do here?

Hey guys any ideas on how to create a query on the last reported date of an agent...heres what I have come up with:

LDQuery.PNG

 

 

What I'm trying to do is find out how many of my decomisioned PC's I have that still have Landesk Agent. (Note:Don't know if these agents will count against my agent limit.)

Can LANDesk Software works in Managed Service Provider (MSP) kind of scenario?

Add full exe build date to registry on devices

$
0
0

Hello.

 

Would it be possible to add the build date/time of the full exe installer to a registry key that then gets added when a device uses that full exe installer?

 

It can be very difficult to verify if a device is running a specific version/build of the LANDesk agent. E.g. if you install a patch on the CORE and rebuilds the full exe installers, then you need to query for specific versions of specific files to verify if a device is updated.

 

It seems to me that having a build date/time value would be an easy thing to query for. Though, you would of course need a separate document to keep track of what's included in the agent with this specific build date, but to me that still seems better than having to check for multiple different file versions and revisions of various settings. We do already include a simple version no. in the agent config name, but one could always argue when and how this should get updated.

 

To accomplish this, I'm thinking about adding a line to the NTSTACFG.in# file like the one below:

 

[Common Pre Copy]

REG05=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE\LANDesk\ManagementSuite\WinClient\InstallerBuildDate, %DATE% %TIME%, , REG_SZ

 

Would that work or are there better methods for achieving the same thing?

 

We are using LDMS 9.0 SP3.

 

Thanks in advance.

NMAP - OS Fingerprinting Ports Used in LANDesk 9 SP2

$
0
0

For community benefit, here are the ports that NMAP appears to use for OS Fingerprinting when called by LANDesk UDD.  I obtained these ports from the XML output file generated by NMAP during UDD/Fingerprinting, and cross referenced ports on the IANA database and supplemented "unknowns" from the list maintained by PC-LIBRARY.COM

 

Also, here's the exact parameters that LANDesk calls NMAP with:

NMAP.EXE -v -PN --min-hostgroup 128 --max-hostgroup 512 -T4 -sS -F -O -iL <LANDesk generated list of IP addresses to scan> -oX <XML output>

 

-v increased verbosity
-PN Treat all hosts as online (scan ports even if no ICMP response)
-T4 Timing template 4
-sS SYN scan technique
-F Fast mode (fewer ports - limit to the 100 most common ports listed below)
-O Enable OS detection

LDMS 9.5 Agent with AV - peer to peer not working for Defs

$
0
0

I have run several tests on the 95 AV and can't seem to get it to pull defintions from its peers. It will pull from a perferred server(kinda). Kinda meaning it will pull files from the perfered server then pull from core then back to the perferred server and so on.  I have run some tests with peer downloads on MS patches and everything works great there.

 

Anyone else come across this?

UDD will not add AD computer objects with no known IP

$
0
0

Hey All,

I've attempted to search for this issue i'm having however closest i found was this article.  From what i'm experiencing with UDD, when doing an active directory scan, it will not add computers to the UDD list if AD does not have a known IP Address.  I've looked up powershell AD information for the computers missing from UDD vs the computer being added and they all confirm this.

 

Anyone know if this is by design or something I can fix or something I should put in an enchance request for?  Obviously if I don't have an IP address then I cannot do much with the computer however it would be at least nice to know it's in AD but not a LANDesk managed device.  Otherwise I hand a report to my boss saying we're 100% landesk managed when really it's 98% and 2% have been offline for so long they've dropped off DNS.

 

Thanks in advance.

Update agent settings via a Policy

$

Hi All

 

LDMS 9.0

 

We have many machines that communicate to the Core Server only over the Management Gateway, these computers will never be on the network.

 

I want to update some of the agent settings for these machines. When I create a "Schedule update to agent settings" task, I don't have the option of choosing the delivery method, it is set as a push only.

 

As I cannot push to machines over the Management Gateway, how do I update the agent settings for these remote machines?

 

Has anyone else solved this problem? Is there maybe a script that could be scheduled as a policy to do this?

 

I am hoping that the answer is not that I have to install a full agent every time.

 

Cam
