I've installed the forwarder on Ubuntu and it did get the apps from the deployment server right after the install. But it does not get any updates - it cannot phone home. What the root cause is, I'm still not yet sure, but for some reason, whenever I type a command on the forwarder that requires you to provide a valid username/password nothing happens. The cli does not show the request for the **Splunk username:** as it does on any of the Windows forwarders we have installed.
I'm pretty sure I will solve the phone home issue if I can solve the issue with username/password not showing, but no luck yet doing that.
