Initial install source help

RogueViper

I've been having trouble with using the 'protect' function in SEC. We have a synchronised laptop group based on an AD OU. When a laptop syncs over I go along and use the protect function; this pushes out the update client and the iconn.cfg file. At this point the install becomes stuck unless I manually copy over a working iconn file from another laptop to the config folder. 

It seems the iconn file is defined in the 'Initial install source'; for us it defines a UNC path as \\[Server IP]\SophosUpdate

The primary update source we use is web, so the source is http://[Server IP]/sophos with a secondary address set as \\[server name]\SophosUpdate plus the credentials for this share. 

Why won't the clients update using the initial install UNC path? The error we get in the update logs is - 

CIDUpdateLocation::SyncProduct: Failed to update product (Sophos AutoUpdate) from "\\[Server IP]\SophosUpdate\CIDs\S001\SAVSCFXP\", Error is :CIDSYNC_E_SRCNOTFOUND (Source not found.)

My initial thoughts were a permissions issue, but if I'm using my domain admin account details in the protect function and I can navigate to the initial install source in my own PC surely this isn't the issue?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mike

    Hello Mike, looks like you allow anonymous access to you WebCID - but that's not the question here. There are no credentials in the config file so it's no surprise that the connection fails (unless AutoUpdate runs under an account which can connect). So what does the log say before the failure?
