Client protection with local Windows Policies Enabled

Hey

I Configured a Server (Workgroup Enviroment) with sophos Enterprise Console 5 which works on clients with no local windows policies enabled all clients get there updates and sophos works very well.

Now i got another network with the same configuration only now all this clients have Windows security policies enabled.

Now when i try to push sophos to this Client i get the 3051 error which means the Server cannot create the SophosSAU<computername> or the password(policy) account for some reason.

Things i done to solve this problem:\

- Put policies off > Result is that everything works but i want policies enabled so this is not a solution for me.

The fault is that  the clients policy ask for a complex password  like 7 characters and a number for example

which causes Enterprise Console to give the 3051 error

My question is:

- Is there a possibilty to let the server (Enterprise Console) make a  local SophosSAU<computername> account  on the client with a complex password? and how to do that? or a workaround for this?

EDIT:

i found this topic:

My question is is this for server side or client side? and anything to configure after?

  • Ok thanks for this information so far im gonna look first if i can find something in the installer which has to do with the Account and Password for the SophosSAU account.

    Second i think im gonna call the support of Sophos to ask about this.

    And third all info i will find about this i will post in this topic so its clear to do for other people who experience this same problem.

    EDIT:

    Another question:

    Any idea which file or .dll in the installer (Autoupdate) has a commandline with make SophosSAU account with password in it?

    This post http://sophos.lithium.com/t5/Sophos-Endpoint-Protection/Problems-updating-clients/td-p/16907

    Is also very similiar to my problem with one difference i want to makes thing go automatic so i dont have to change allot of things on the client side.
