The new software distribution system is amazing. It is like having your own Apple Software Update for your systems, except that you are the one in control of setting what software to update and install. I love how you just define your software packages and sit back and let the update system handle the rest automatically. This is revolutionary on the Mac and is worth the price of admission on its own, never mind all of the other things netOctopus can do!

We're running NetO 4.2.1 on 19 Quicksilver Dual 1-Gig boxes (OSX, 10.2.6) and have 3 workstations where NetO will not run properly--as described by Jlussow. These machines are all CC-Clones of one another, same hardware config on all. On three the installer installs the client, however, these G4s never show to the Admininstrator. We've spent a ton of time trying to get these boxes to behave. This is all within a single subnet.
Anyone know if installing as root will fix this? That's the only suggestion we've received to solve this issue. Have tried this using console a couple of times but the installer refuses to run except in the GUI.
Also, anyone know how to get the snmp NIB to install without an error? There's no documentation for this component.

Restart the machines after you delete the prefs.
Then try to bind the clients from NetO admin.
You should be able to see the clients now. Good Luck.
