Sodium Agent: Which ports

It's an agent, no firewall configs needed.

Since it isn't reporting into the dashboard and is unavailable in the "Available Agents" window, I figured it's possible it's communicating on a port other than 80 or 443. Have you successfully added agents and seen it work?

There are well over 60 machines currently communicating with our server.

Outbound 4505 and 4506.

@quixoticjeremy Here is the process I followed...

sudo -i to run from root
downloaded Ubuntu agent file to server
chmod +x installCS.sh
./installCS.sh

 *  INFO: Running install_ubuntu_stable_post()
 *  INFO: Running install_ubuntu_check_services()
 *  INFO: Running install_ubuntu_restart_daemons()
 *  INFO: Running daemons_running()
 *  INFO: Salt installed!

Have I missed anything? Nothing is being reported back to the Dashboard sadly.

That looks good to me so far. Let me check our side to see if we've gotten a key request etc.

Not true becaus some people block all outbound but 443/80.

There you go.

That'w what I needed. Jeremy has confirmed the agent is talking to the server now that I've allowed those ports outbound.

Thanks @JaredBusch

@QuixoticJeremy Is the agent communication encrypted?

Yes, AES for payload encryption.

QuixoticJustin

That's correct. We encrypt on both authentication and on payload. We should make an FAQ page about that. Another item for the task list

Speaking of which, have you been watching your burn down list grow? haha
