Hi Chris, Much of the time you don't need to update your agents. For example, version 2.0 of the manager supports all agent versions from 1.0 and up (and works +- with the 0.9 version). As far as the XML files (rules, decoder, etc) they are all stored on the ossec server, so by just updating this one it will affect all the agents.
Thanks, -- Daniel B.
