running tasks (ie VBScript) prior to 'Protect Computers' rollout

Hiya,

I've tried to search the board for this, but not found anything.

Is there a way to run tasks before having the Sophos installed? For instance, I need to disable Simple File Sharing on machines before roll out, and since the site is remote (400 miles away) i can't run past every client.

I have a VBS that would do this for me, but I am not sure where this is to be configured.

If it is just a matter of prepping the environment even before kicking off Protect Computers, that'b be fine too, but I like to bundle tasks and automate as much as i can (also for new PC's that come on board)

Thanks!

  • What is you did the installation via the script as well?

    Then you can do all your prerequisites followed by the installation.

    The only thing is that you would need an alternative method to deploy it.

    PSEXEC could work, or I also like an application called Remote Installer by a company called Compulsion Software

    Not sure what kind of access you have at your remote site though.
