Comparing MeshCentral 2 to ScreenConnect

@pmoncho I believe he probably wants the agent installed, but wants the user to be notified and then asked for permission to allow connection.
That is what I thought too. I know the agent will not be installed (yeah that sucks) but the "Connect" button solves the underlying acknowledge/permission issue as the user has to physically be there and press the connect button while he is on the phone with them (this sucks too).
So I must be misunderstanding something.

Yeah, but then they have to have permission to install (they shouldn't have that in the first place) and they need to know how to get the agent, etc. That's not any good outside of a home user support model. For business support, you have to have an installed agent. but you almost always have to have user notification.

Everyone needs a break now and then. We have been killing him lately.
Maybe he needs the break to think about how to get @JaredBusch "Allow" button.

LOL. I just got back this morning and about to step back on the coding treadmill. Got a lot of bug reports on GitHub I need to got thru in the coming days.
-

Hope you enjoyed your time off of it!

Now on 0.3.1-x

@dafyre I did enjoy my vacations, but I have to say, I also enjoy working on MeshCentral. It's really fun. Just published MeshCentral 0.3.1-y:
- You can now sync the device names to the device hostnames.
- New server permissions for users to remove rights to create new groups or see MeshCMD link.
- Fixed remote desktop full screen problem.
- Improved terminal. Should be able to run nano/pico/vi much better.

Jared will be very happy.

Just did mine too, as well as enabling 2FA.
-
@Ylian on 0.3.2-b after the update the service restarts every ten minutes or so. Something is wrong. Nothing in the logs that we can see, it just restarts.
-
Okay, now it is hours between restarts. But still happening. It's not the end of the world, but it's a bit of an issue
