Install

OADM has two parts:

• Server: runs as a service, talks to the devices, keeps the device list, passwords and tasks.
• Client: the app you work in. It connects to a server on the same computer or elsewhere.

Download the installer for your system from the latest release. Every installer offers Server and client (default) or Client only, for a computer that connects to a server elsewhere. Uninstalling keeps the data folder (devices, credentials, settings, PKI).

Note

The installers are not signed yet. Check a download against SHA256SUMS.txt of the release.

Windows

1. Download OADM-<version>-win-x64.msi and double-click it.
2. Accept the terms and the license, then choose Server and client or Client only.
3. Finish. With the server, the Windows service OADM Server starts now and on every boot.

• Client: Start menu > OADM.
• Data folder: %ProgramData%\OADM.
• Uninstall: Settings > Apps > OADM.
• Silent install of the client only: msiexec /i OADM-<version>-win-x64.msi ADDLOCAL=Client /qn.

Linux

Debian and Ubuntu, x64. Download the .deb files you need and install them:

sudo apt install ./oadm-server_*.deb ./oadm-client_*.deb   # server and client
sudo apt install ./oadm-server_*.deb                       # server only
sudo apt install ./oadm-client_*.deb                       # client only

• Server: systemd service oadm-server (sudo systemctl status oadm-server).
• Client: app menu > OADM, or oadm-client.
• Data folder: /var/lib/oadm.
• Uninstall: sudo apt remove oadm-server oadm-client.

Note

The notice “Download is performed unsandboxed as root … couldn’t be accessed by user ‘_apt’” is harmless: apt cannot read your private home folder and reads the file as root instead. To avoid it, install from /tmp.

macOS

Intel Macs (x64).

1. Download OADM-<version>-osx-x64.pkg.
2. The package is not signed yet: right-click it, choose Open and confirm.
3. For the client only, click Customize and clear OADM server.

• Server: background service com.oadm.server.
• Client: Applications > OADM.
• Data folder: /Library/Application Support/OADM.
• Uninstall: sudo /Applications/OADM.app/Contents/Resources/uninstall-oadm.sh.

Next: First start.
