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

IK

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!

    Hello IK,

    right you are. The weekend helped me to read things right (and not to get carried away by my imagination). Of course dealing with Simple Filesharing should be rather easy. Past experience made me mix this up with a related problematic setting viz (Enable) File and Printer sharing. Let's say I've seen install where is was installed but not enabled. Sorry for not reading your post correctly twice. Ugh - don't want to find out what else I've messed up last week ... :smileyvery-happy:
