    after "resolving" the issue, now my clients are throwing errors saying they haven't updated since different dates. Some are 9-21, some are 9-22, some are earlier.

    I have uninstall and re-installed the clients on some of these machines and they still show they are not up to date.

    When I look at my update Manager I get errors:
    Threat Detection data update failed

    Software Update failed

    Delivery failed for software subscription [subscription-name]. Access to the source update location is denied or the location is otherwise unavailable

    How do i fix the updating process so they all stay up to date.


    Hi VEL,

    On the face of it this error message susggests that your Update Manager may not have the correct credentials to update from the Sophos warehouse. If you haven't already I would suggest double checking the credentials used by your Update Manager. If you have already tried this then the following article may be use: http://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/knowledgebase/66176.aspx
