Here is our configuration, which works.
Linux Collector Server
Windows Agent Clients which do Work from Home without any VPN connection.
The collector server runs an sftp server. The agent client also transfers its files to the server every day.
The scans of the client are also imported into the Atlassian Cloud.
So far so good.
Now we want to distribute the client agent automatically, via software, to the Windows clients.
The problem I have is that I always have to configure the clients with
Discovery_Agent.exe -setupsftp
once. After that the connection works.
Now I thought, I just copy the
Agent.bak
Agent.cfg
into an installed client. Only if I then create a
Discovery_Agent.exe -s
I get this error message.

If I afterwards again
Discovery_Agent.exe -setupsftp
it works after that. How can I now give a configuration with an automated software, so that all clients have the same configuration.
As I said, because the users have no VPN connection, I also have no IP range that I can use for the collector or discovery. At home everyone has his own internal IPs.
