Windows agent installation on Windows Server2008, using Zabbix 2.0

[tahir.bhatti]

Hi,
I have install zabbix 2.0 server on RHEL-5, server is running properly, agent is install on the same system as well. Server is generating it graphs, it mean server is OK.

Now I tried to install zabbix agent on Windows Server 2008 and XP as well. I have adopted two ways, first mentioned in online document using zabbix_agentd.exe --install and --start command. Secondly use the install.bat method. In both the cases the agent is not available on the server. Firewalls on both the sides are stopped. Kindly any one done this task, can guide me the right way to complete the task.

Thanks for reply but the problem is still the same. Any other idea...

Did you install a 32bit agent on a 64bit OS?

If that's not the case, show us the exact (full) command you used to do the install, and show us the zabbix_agentd.conf contents from the Windows host.
