Deploy Sophos endpoint client without firewall?

D_M

Can I deploy the client with the anitivirus component only?

We manage the Windows firewall quite nicely via Group Policy.

Besides the fact that I see others have had problems with the firewall (which may or may not affect us)...

I also see (though given the date, I would guess this has changed) that it may not work with 64 bit OSes anyway:

    Thank you for those clarifications (just getting back to this).

    I've just imported groups from Active Directory.

    Now, the Management Console will not attempt to perform any action on these computers until I complete the " Protect Computers" wizard for the group in question, correct?

    That's my assumption after going through the wizard and seeing I need to enter credentials of a user account with admin privileges to install anything. And I do see that the firewall option is unchecked by default.
