I already solved the syslink problem.

Hi, could you share what do you see in the logs when you try to enroll an agent? Did the command to start Fleet Server succeed?

It could be that Fleet Server can't communicate with Elasticsearch. You can verify the Elasticsearch host in Settings / Outputs / default output.  
Can you try setting `--fleet-server-es=https://192.168.100.60:9200` in your enroll command?

If you visit [http://localhost:9200/](http://localhost:9200/) , do you get a successful response? It would be good to find out where Elasticsearch runs.  
If it really runs in `http` only, you have to add `--fleet-server-es-insecure` to the enroll command.
