@Dashrender When I start up meshcentral, I get the message that the
SMTP mail server smtp.gmail.com failedinstead of it sayingSMTP mail server smtp.gmail.com working as expected.when set to true. Either way I haven't seen any verified or reset account emails still. I even tried using my postfix server with only the host, port and from configured and it still not working for me.So the google logs even show an attempt to send you messages?

Just published MeshCentral v0.2.5-d where you can re-brand the top bar with your company logo. Personally, I would start with the "logoback.png" file in the "node_modules/meshcentral/public/images" and add your logo to it. Instruction are in section 19 of the new v0.1.9 User's Guide. Enjoy!

@black3dynamite For SMTP setup, does your server show the "Invite" link as shown in red below? Also, can you go in the "My Server" tab, click on "Show server error log" and report back if you see anything in that log? - Thanks.

I only see Add Agent link and no error log.

@Ylian Awesome, I'll go update!
-
@Ylian Issue submitted for typos in the guide that have a path wrong for script install.

Just set up SMTP with our Zimbra server for MC. Works great!
-
Anyone else using WebRTC mode? Performance is noticeably better, I feel. Could be imagination, I guess. But sure seems better to me.
-
For those hosting this in a normal way (on cloud, VPS, etc.), don't forget to set WANOnly in your config file.
-
The invite feature is working well, too.
-
Install fails on Solus. Bug report opened.
-
Tried Zorin. Agent installs fine. Remote terminal works. But remote screen does not.
-
Yep just tried it on a win7 vm, Kaspersky goes nuts lol...
Annoying will have to exclude manually.
-
No issues with Windows Defender
-
Doing some side by side testing against SC and MC is blowing its doors off in performance. Both the interface performance and remote session performance!
-
The features are already brilliant and it's still in Beta...defiantly could be a viable solution, after all SC is not exactly a low cost product.

Annoying will have to exclude manually.I seem to hit something similar with Trend but it doesn't give any warnings or logs that I could find, just allows the install to continue but it sits broken and unusable

@Ylian is out for the holidays. So expect no updates for a few days.
-
Finally got around to putting LetsEncrypt certs on my MC install

Kaspersky
I asked to be whitelisted by Kaspersky a few months back and they approved. I will need to check that again.
We have our own WebRTC stack in the MeshAgent which is quite unique. However, Firefox v64 just broke it (Looking into it), Chrome works. With WebRTC traffic goes directly from the browser to the agent bypassing the server. Should be faster, scale better and lower hosting costs.
Yes, I am traveling for the next 5 days, will be back with updates soon. Got plenty to work on.
