We will install the agent configuration template for the agent on the server, as well as another host. The template on the server can use localhost as the server address, but for the remote host this needs to be changed:

[root@srv-1 zabbix-1.1beta8]# cp misc/conf/zabbix_agentd.conf /etc/zabbix/
[root@srv-1 zabbix-1.1beta8]# cat /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf
# This is config file for zabbix_agentd
# To get more information about ZABBIX, go http://www.zabbix.com
