Pushing out Sophos

Bengaul

Dear All,

We recently upgraded to the latest Sophos enterprise console, 5.0. Cutting a long story short, we did a reinstall, and tried to push out the AV. Some worked, and some didn't. Contacting support, we were told to delete mrinit.conf for the sophos foilder, and try to install again. This does work, but we have about 550 machines, and going round all the computers that are not updating is a big task. 

Is there a way to push out the client, without having to delete mrinit.conf etc?

Cheers.

    HI,

    One possibility... if you can run a VBScript on all the clients to point them at the new server:

    /search?q= 8939

    From the HTA, just select the new cac.pem and mrinit.conf (from the CID/update location will do), generate the vbs file and run it on all clients, maybe as a startup-script.  I'd avdise testing it on a couple of clients first just to check it's all ok?  The clients should become "connected" in the new SEC.

    Hope it helps.

    Regards,
