Tactical RMM is a remote monitoring & management tool for Windows computers, built with Django and Vue.
It uses an agent written in golang, as well as the SaltStack api and MeshCentral
Demo database resets every hour. Alot of features are disabled for obvious reasons due to the nature of this app.
Tactical RMM is currently in alpha and subject to breaking changes. Use in production at your own risk.

Refer to the docker setup
Fresh VPS with latest updates
login as root and create a user and add to sudoers group (we will be creating a user called tactical)
apt update && apt -y upgrade
adduser tactical
usermod -a -G sudo tactical
switch to the tactical user and setup the firewall
su - tactical
sudo ufw default deny incoming
sudo ufw default allow outgoing
sudo ufw allow ssh
sudo ufw allow http
sudo ufw allow https
sudo ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 4505,4506
sudo ufw allow proto tcp from any to any port 4222
sudo ufw enable && sudo ufw reload
Our domain for this example is tacticalrmm.com
In the DNS manager of wherever our domain is hosted, we will create three A records, all pointing to the public IP address of our VPS
Create A record api.tacticalrmm.com
for the django rest backend
Create A record rmm.tacticalrmm.com
for the vue frontend
Create A record mesh.tacticalrmm.com
for meshcentral
Download the install script and run it
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wh1te909/tacticalrmm/master/install.sh
chmod +x install.sh
./install.sh
Links will be provided at the end of the install script.
Download the executable from the first link, then open rmm.tacticalrmm.com
and login.
Upload the executable when prompted during the initial setup page.
From the app's dashboard, choose Agents > Install Agent to generate an installer.
Download and run update.sh
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wh1te909/tacticalrmm/master/update.sh
chmod +x update.sh
./update.sh
Download backup.sh
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wh1te909/tacticalrmm/master/backup.sh
Change the postgres username and password at the top of the file (you can find them in /rmm/api/tacticalrmm/tacticalrmm/local_settings.py
under the DATABASES section)
Run it
chmod +x backup.sh
./backup.sh
Change your 3 A records to point to new server's public IP
Create same linux user account as old server and add to sudoers group and setup firewall (see install instructions above)
Copy backup file to new server
Download the restore script, and edit the postgres username/password at the top of the file. Same instructions as above in the backup steps.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wh1te909/tacticalrmm/master/restore.sh
Run the restore script, passing it the backup tar file as the first argument
chmod +x restore.sh
./restore.sh rmm-backup-xxxxxxx.tar
