Endpoint Console Help

DuaneM

I have some issues with the Enterprise Management Console that I'm hoping someone might have some advice about.  We are considering purchasing the Endpoint Enterprise to manage our Anti Virus protection on our heavily mixed environement.  We have Macs, PCs and Linux Clusters.

I currently have a test environment on my OS X 10.6 MacBook Pro running Parallels VM

I have Server 2003 running on one VM to host the Management Console

I have Windows 7 on a second VM

I did not use Active Directory because our live environment currently doesn't either.

I installed the Management Console and downloaded the Windows, Mac, and Linux Clients.

I then installed the Mac client from the server share but it did not autoconfigure for my server???

So I manually added the update server and it is getting updates from the win2k3 server but on the server console my MacBookPro is still "grayed out"

Any Thoughts?

Thanks a bunch.

    Hi Jak,

    Thanks for the quick response.  You're correct, I have the server and the Win7 PC Sophos client installed and updating.  I even pushed an updated policy to my Win7 PC to test communications (Policy Compliance = Same as policy).

    I've attempted a telnet from my server to the Mac but those ports are rejecting the connection, so I think that is a great place to start. Thanks again.

    I wonder if it's a problem with my Ethernet being bridged on Parallels.  I'll return with more details after some research.

    Update:  Appearantly the communications between Win7 and Server are not 100% either, I downloaded the eicar test virus and sophos caught it but there is no report of the threat on the Admin Console.

    It's a long shot but I wonder if by chance there anyone else out there that has attempted to configure the management console in a test environment using Parallels 6 on Mac OS X 10.6?  Is it even possible?
