Warning: Solaris 2.6 only. If you are planning to install D'Agents on a Solaris 2.6 machine, read Bug Report 20 before proceeding. (The bug report relates to machine crashes, so please take the time to read it.)
Agent Tcl is a UNIX application and is known to compile on the following platforms.
The source code should be easily portable to any Unix platform that provides TCP/IP and Berkley sockets. Other platforms will require more work.
Please read the licensing terms that come with the software and please remember that D'Agents is essentially a beta release. Do not be surprised if you find a bug.

If you have trouble downloading the large archives above, you can also download the source code in smaller pieces.
| Description | FTP location |
|---|---|
| D'Agents 2.0: Main system and Tcl agents (part 1) | agent2.0.part1.tar.gz |
| D'Agents 2.0: Main system and Tcl agents (part 2) | agent2.0.part2.tar.gz |
| D'Agents 2.0: Main system and Tcl agents (part 3) | agent2.0.part3.tar.gz |
| D'Agents 2.0: Main system and Tcl agents (part 4) | agent2.0.part4.tar.gz |
| D'Agents 2.0: Main system and Tcl agents (part 5) | agent2.0.part5.tar.gz |
If you download the smaller pieces, make sure that you get them all, and make sure that you uncompress and untar them in the same directory.
The documentation is included with the source code, but you can download the documentation separately if desired:
| Description | FTP location |
|---|---|
| D'Agents 2.0: Installation instructions (without encryption subsystem) |
install2.0.ps.gz |
| D'Agents 2.0: Installation instructions (with encryption subsystem) |
install-secure2.0.ps.gz |
| D'Agents 2.0: Full documentation | To be determined |
| D'Agents 1.1: Full documentation | doc.1.1.ps.gz |
Although D'Agents 2.0 has many new features, it is similar enough to D'Agents 1.1 that the documentation above will get you started. Make sure, however, that you use the installation instructions for D'Agents 2.0, not the installation instructions that appear inside the full documentation for D'Agents 1.1. In addition, the example agents in the D'Agents 1.1 documentation will not necessarily work "as-is" under D'Agents 2.0; instead use the updated agents that come with D'Agents 2.0. The D'Agents 1.1 documentation does explain the agent commands quite well, however, and will help you to understand the D'Agents 2.0 agents.
In addition, you should feel free to send us any questions that you might have. The FAQ lists the appropriate e-mail addresses.
