How do you configure an Update Manager without Internet access ?

I am trying to configure my Update Manager but I do not have direct access to the Sophos website.

I have installed SophosEnterpriseConsole_4.5.

I have copies of Warehouse and CIDs from a Server that does have access to the Sophos website so I have copied these onto my Server's "SophosUpdateManager" share.

I now want to edit my "Recommended" Subscription and select "Windows 2000 and above" but I can not get to the form where you do this. I get a message telling me to run the Download Security Software Wizard to configure the local update manager to download from Sophos. But as I don't have access to the Internet this is no use to me.

I am sure that in the past all I had to do was manually populate the "SophosUpdateManager" share but I am obviously missing something.

Can anybody tell me what I need to do ?

Thanks

  • Hello Christian,

    thanks for getting back.

    The problem is I just can't get to the page where I edit the Subscription.

    I've put a "Warehouse" in my SophosUpdateManager share and edited the "Sources" (SophosUpdateManager) and "Subscription" (Recommended) tabs of the Update Manager  but having done that I can't edit the "Recommended" subscription.

     I seem to be permanently stuck with "At least one update manager must be configured to update from Sophos before you can create or modify software subscriptions".

    The Update manager view shows "Software Update failed" ; Last Updated = "Never"; Configuration = "Matches".
