      I would like to be able to launch a slave at boot time with something like
      java -jar slave.jar <server>:<port>

          [JENKINS-779] Initiate connection from client

          you can run JNLP agent from command line like "javaws
          http://server/hudson/computer/xyz/slave-agent.jnlp"

          1.135 contains this in HTML as this might not be obvious.

          The submitter wants to run a slave agent in a headless environment.

          (hypp, you can post comments to the issue by becoming an observer)

          A work around is to set up ssh on your slave and have Hudson launch slave agent.
          This is usually more desirable mode of operations.

          The submitter reported that he needs this because master can't connect to slaves
          due to firewall.

          Since it is now possible to launch a headless JNLP I think that this issue
          could have a lower priority
