Jumpcloud, anyone?

[mr-simon]

My employer has been pretty good in that they'll let us run whatever we want on our laptops. However, we've now been Officially Mandated by the higher-ups to run Jumpcloud on our systems.

Running their installer tells me that my OS is unsupported. The actual package download is hidden inside a pipe-to-bash script which passes whatever it detects my OS as to a download. I imagine I can get a .deb or similar out of it, but wondering if anyone has got this working?

Probably installer check if is a supported linux, you should see if you can skip this check.

Hey, Brandon with JumpCloud here, seconding the suggestion about supported linux distros.

If you are running a distro not supported by the JumpCloud agent, you may still have success:

https://support.jumpcloud.com/support/s/article/linux-error-your-osarchitecture----is-not-supported1

Generally speaking, that solution means something along the lines of the following, using Ubuntu as an example:

- You can likely get the agent running on that distribution quickly by modifying /etc/issue.
- At your convenience, please backup /etc/issue to /etc/issue.orig and then modify /etc/issue and change
Ubuntu 19.10 \n \l
to
Ubuntu 19.04 \n \l
- Once complete, please try the Agent install again.

In addition to official support, we also have a Slack community for JumpCloud discussions, free to all at https://jumpcloudlounge.slack.com/join/shared_invite/zt-esobabj4-Ytqy4ZSTo6ZONoALoGHAKA?platform=hootsuite .
