@paramedicspecialist Thanks for packaging this! I’ll definitely give the Cloudron package a try.
@joseph Just to add some context about MeshCentral: it’s actually quite a bit more powerful than a simple remote desktop tool. It’s a long-standing open-source remote management project, originally developed with strong Intel involvement, particularly around Intel AMT/vPro.
I personally use MeshCentral in production to manage around 300 devices across 3 countries.
With the regular MeshAgent, you can remotely access desktops, terminals and files, run commands/scripts, manage devices, and tunnel protocols such as RDP or SSH.
Where it gets especially interesting is with Intel vPro/AMT hardware. You can get true out-of-band management: remotely power a computer on/off, reboot it, access hardware KVM, boot to BIOS or another boot device, etc. This can work independently of the operating system — even when the machine is powered off, as long as AMT remains powered and reachable.
So while it’s not a full RMM in the same sense as products with integrated patch management, MeshCentral can be a very capable self-hosted management platform, especially when combined with scripts or another software deployment/patching solution.
Really happy to see it packaged for Cloudron!
