Just updated from 0.2.5-f to 0.2.5-j. It has been a busy morning, I guess!

Considered creating a script to update it?

No, it's the kind of thing we want to control the timing of as someone might be working for a client at any given moment 24x7.

A shell script does not a cron job make!

A script only makes sense in that context, though, since it is just the click of a button to update it as it is.

Ah. That's nice. Obviously haven't gotten around to getting this installed yet myself.... my new server should be delivered today, so maybe by this weekend.

@scottalanmiller Script... or set "SelfUpdate" to true in settings section of MeshCentral's config.json. It's supposed to update sometime between midnight and 1am, but I got to check that code again. I may be updating in UTC time or something.
"settings": { "SelfUpdate": true }, -
@Ylian
I have the update setting enabled but my one server is still on 0.2.4-w -
I'm on 0.2.5-k now.

Holy Smokes!
This tool rocks. Has anybody tried the Agent on a Wayland interface yet?

Yeah it does!
-
Have y'all tried it with a system that uses Wayland yet? Or are your clients mainly Windows?

We use a bit of Linux, but probably none with Wayland.

We use a bit of Linux, but probably none with Wayland.
So you haven't installed it on Fedora Gnome?

No, we don't use Gnome anywhere.

On a fresh netinstall of Fedora 29, it mostly doesn't work. It does show up in MeshCenral. And I tested both Desktop and Terminal and neither of them worked.
Going to try with SELinux off and see what happens.
