Berre 0 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Hello, Im trying to remotely give clients their EES by using the ESET Remote Administrator. I made the client task to deploy the software and i made a server task tot deploy the agent but the agent deployment is failing and i dont know why. I cant reach the clients by pinging them from the cmd either. I can see and select them in the ESET Remote Administrator so they are configured? Does anyone know what i am doing wrong or what i need to do? Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,074 Posted November 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted November 18, 2020 Deploying agent via GPO in a domain is preferred. Alternatively you can use the Remote deployment tool as per https://help.eset.com/esmc_smb/72/en-US/deployment_tool.html. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every computer shows that the task failed. I dont know what is the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,074 Posted November 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted November 18, 2020 Are you able to install agent manually by running the msi installer or it fails too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the installation itself is failing for some reason, e.g. insufficient permissions to a particular folder or registry key, there is no way to install the product manually or automatically unless the issue is fixed. Hence it's important to know if manual installation by running the msi installer works or not in order to continue with further troubleshooting.

So i tried the agent deployment method in Esmc and that didn't work for all computers but some got their agent now! Sometimes when i run the task again another computer that in another task did not connect connected! Anyway the computers that are not connecting are saying: Windows network remote deployment failed because HOSTNAME CAN NOT BE RESOLVED to the target WINDOWS machine. Verify that: 1. 'pc1.domain.nl' is correct machine hostname or IP address. 2. 'pc1.domain.nl' can be resolved with 'nslookup' if it is a DNS name. You would say that it is something with the DNS but on the other hand some pc's that gave this message as well are now deployed with an agent?!
