I looked in the Mailing List Archive for silently installing the OSSEC agent on Windows machine.
I saw the thread that gave the command of \\path\ossec-agent-win32-latest.exe /S to perform a silent install. (A word to all else who see this thread - the "S" is case sensitive, it has to be upper case!) I pushed it out with a script using our Altiris Deployment Server. Altiris showed a successful completion, but I didn't think it worked because when I went to the PC, I didn't see an OSSEC menu group under All Programs in the Start menu. So, I ran the ossec-agent-win32-latest.exe command and it gave me a message that the OSSEC agent was running and asked if I wanted to stop it. That let me know that the install was successful. Why didn't it create a menu group? Can I force it to create a menu group or should I just copy the OSSEC group in to the "Start" menu? Randy Dover
