[ossec-list] Re: No client configured. Exiting.

Hi OlRoy,

Are you getting this message on the server or agent? It should only show
up in the agent if you forgot to configure it properly (give the
server ip address).
If it is showing in the server, something is wrong with your install
(agentd should
not even be called).

Make sure that you have the "client" config in your agent:

Hope it helps.
