    Connecting zabbix server to an ancient server on windows server 2000

    Hello. It is necessary to connect the Zabbix 6.0 LTS server to the old junk on Windows Server 2000. On our site the minimum version is 3.0. There were messages that the agent version 1.4.6 is suitable. I would be grateful if it is possible to send this agent or another compatible version to my e-mail.

    Thank you. Zabbix Agent 3.0 i386 at the end of installation displays the message: "Zabbix Agent 32-bit Setup Wizard ended prematurely because of an error. Your system has not been modified..." I managed to connect the host to the server using SNMP, which is also not bad. The issue of compatibility of the agent version 3 and Windows Server 2000 remains open.

      I have ABSOLUTELY no idea whether ancient Agent versions will work with 6.0, but you can bypass the web GUI to and go directly to the download pages:

      1.4.6 in that path tree only has a few UNIX binaries, 1.4.4 seems to be the youngest 1.4 with Windows binaries. Browse up and down and try 2.0 agents also perhaps?


      --Edit: Looks like 2.4.4 and 1.8.19 Windows agents are available too.

        https://www.zabbix.com/documentation.../compatibility (6.0 version compatibility) says that

        To be compatible with Zabbix 6.0, Zabbix agent must not be older than version 1.4 and must not be newer than 6.0.

          jtnfoley, thanks for the link. I managed to download version 3.0.4 and install the service via the command line. Zabbix server saw the connection, but displayed few parameters. And only after I added an additional SNMP connection to the node, many parameters were immediately displayed. By the way, the SNMP connection can be deleted later, the server continues to display all parameters. Thanks to everyone for your help.
