<p dir="auto">Proxy settings are missing for SYSTEM.</p>
<p dir="auto">Solved by set up the proxy for Local System account.<br />
Download PsExec.exe.</p>
<p dir="auto">Start a command shell (cmd.exe) with administrator privileges.</p>
<p dir="auto">PsExec -i -s cmd.exe<br />
This will open a new cmd.exe that is running under Local System authority. You may check this by executing "whoami" command into that new command shell which will return "nt authority\system"</p>
<p dir="auto">Open the Internet Options with this command:</p>
<p dir="auto">inetcpl.cpl<br />
Go to “Connections” tab, click on “LAN settings”, and set up the “Proxy server” section with the relevant proxy address and port number.</p>
<p dir="auto">(optional) If you need to Bypass proxy server for local addresses, tick the relevant checkbox.</p>
<p dir="auto">(optional) If you need to specify exclusions, click “Advanced” and set up the “Exceptions” section accordingly, and click “OK”.</p>
<p dir="auto">Click “OK”, and exit all open command shells.</p>
<p dir="auto">Secteer agent is now communicating with the Secteer backend!</p>

<p dir="auto">Thanks for your answer and pointing to a direction to investigate and possible solution.</p>
<p dir="auto">Also we will update the whitelisted servers in our Proxy server.</p>
<p dir="auto">Kind regards,</p>

<p dir="auto">Hi,</p>
<p dir="auto">It appears that we have some outdated documentation, it will be fixed within a day or two. The OCSP / CRT hosts should be:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://r3.o.lencr.org" rel="nofollow ugc">r3.o.lencr.org</a></li>
<li><a href="http://r3.i.lencr.org" rel="nofollow ugc">r3.i.lencr.org</a></li>
</ul>
<p dir="auto">However, this is most likely not the cause of the issue that you have.</p>
<p dir="auto">I can see that the host got registered with the system. This means that the installer managed to contact the backend and get the authToken, that you see in the logfile.</p>
<p dir="auto">Since the installer is invoked interactively by the logged in user, it uses the same network / proxy settings as the user that is logged in, when it invokes the Agent to register for a authToken.</p>
<p dir="auto">While the Agent runs as the SYSTEM user, after it is installed.</p>
<p dir="auto">In some environments, there is restrictions on what the SYSTEM user can do on the network and whether it has access to a proxy.</p>
<p dir="auto">I suspect that is what you are seeing here.</p>
<p dir="auto">Since I don't know anything about your system configuration, it is hard to advise on the proper cause of action to allow the Agent network access.</p>
