Hey, We have installed a Free version of Fleet on our server, I am looking for the Agent Installer like Fleet gave me in the trial version to add devices in Fleet. Please help me with who I will add devices in the Free version?

Hi @Arslan! You can add hosts using the 
fleetd
installer (which is generated using 
fleetctl
), or by using plain osquery and pointing it at the Fleet server. https://fleetdm.com/docs/using-fleet/adding-hosts

@Kathy Satterlee Hey I appreciate your quick response, Actually, I want to use this product in my company. So I am looking for generic installer macOS hosts (.pkg), Windows hosts (.msi), or Linux hosts (.deb or .rpm). So I just gave my employees, just download and we can get access of his machine-like in the FLeet paid version. We just choose the OS and a file download and Fleet get all the information of that system.
I am using Kolide Fleet

You can generate an installer of each type and upload that to your preferred file sharing system to be downloaded and installed on each host.
^ You can also distribute the installer using your software deployment tool if you have one in place.
You don’t need to generate a new package locally for each host, just one per platform.

Thank you buddy, let me check.
@waleed Please look into this chat

@Kathy Satterlee Thanks for the help! I have read the documentation and I have already installed the fleetctl on my server. I tried to create the installer by using the below command
Copy code
fleetctl package --type pkg --fleet-url=[YOUR FLEET URL] --enroll-secret=[YOUR ENROLLMENT SECRET]
but it shows error.
k
What version of Fleet and fleetctl are you running?
w
fleetctl version is 3.2.0
Is the above command run on kolide ?
because I am using kolide
fleet version is also 3.2.0
k
Ah. I see that I missed that earlier. That is no longer supported. I’d highly recommend going with the most recent version of Fleet.
w
If I am not wrong I think latest version is 4.33. right?
k
Yes. Kolide retired Fleet in 2020 at version 3.2.0. It was then picked up by FleetDM and the current version is 4.33.0
w
oh!
so what should I do now ?
k
Upgrade to a more recent version (preferably v4.33.0)
w
Is that possible I can install kolide with latest version of fleet?
@Kathy Satterlee Could you confirm please
k
Kolide no longer supports Fleet. What kind of functionality are you hoping to add by combining the two?
w
@Arsalan Yasin please elaborate him. He will give the best option

Actually, we are looking to use this to monitor our employee devices means Device Healths, issue, security stuff and all the features which Fleet is offering here
Like the Device Management Stuff, We can monitor devices, get live location, Can access terminals, can install stuff through the Employee Terminal, Fetch information of Device Hardware & Software, run Patch Management, can run policies all that stuff we are looking in Opensource software,
k
Great! In that case, you’ll need to install the current version of Fleet from the link above and you’ll be good to go!
It’s the same core product, it’s just moved to a new repository after being retired by Kolide and picked up by Fleet Device Management. If you install the latest version from there, we’ll be able to help you out.
It sounds like you were using a Fleet Sandbox trial previously, which would be the latest version of Fleet.
