Temp Setup

Jase

Hi,

I will like to know if I have couple of Win XP and Macintosh clients on a subnet that does not have Internet access only, can I setup to be able to do the following.

 1. Able to get a definitions updates from a Server Share (\\ServerA\VirusDefinitions)

 2. Not using a SEC as the current hardware is not ready.

Why I asking this question is the hardware for the SEC is not ready yet. I am on a test server which I have instruction not to use the SEC to "push" the updates to the client.

I thinking of copying the virus definition files to the server shares on a daily basis, thus the client is able to get the updates there via the primary location.

Anyone can advise?

    Hi Christian,

    I do have SEC running but is on a test server. The actual hardware for the server is not ready thus I planning to let the clients connect direct to the Internet for updates. This can be easily resolves as I can point the client to Sophos directly.

     Unfortunatelly I do have a subnet that does not connect to the internet. This segment does have access to a particular server.

    What I wanted is a temporary method for these computers (both Macintosh and XP) in this subnet to be able to receive antivirus definitions from the server.

    Is there a way?
