  • 1.  Any advice on installing Altiris 7.1 agent onto Linux Debian 7

    Any advice on the steps involved in installing the Altiris 7.1 (8287) agent onto Debian Linux 7.1 as the bootstrap install only installs the core agent and not the sub agents and the RPM is not compatible with Debian?

    Remember Debian and Ubuntu are not supported so somethings will not work
