Osquery uses basic SQL commands to leverage a relational data-model to describe a device.

osquery

`{"caller":"launcher.go:125","err":"launching osquery instance: starting instance: could not create extension manager server at \\\\.\\pipe\\kolide.em`
Launched by:
`C:\Fleet&gt;launcher.exe --hostname=hostname.fqdn:8080 --enroll_secret=blahblah --insecure`

with or without the root_directory flag.  Same string works on any linux box so far (I'll work on the cert part later)

Are you running as administrator? Probably a permissions issue.

I just tried reinstalling from official MSI.

Well... I overcomplicated the hell out of that.  Turns out... just download the launcher release... having anything installed before that takes 'figuring out'.  :slightly_smiling_face:
