Linux PC appearing twice in SEC

VladGuan

Hi All,

We have a Linux (Fedora) PC with Sophos installed. It is part of a Windows AD domain (via NIS) and is placed in an appropriate AD group along with other Linux (CentOS) Servers. Now, the question is why are the following happening:

1. fedora-pc appears in correct group in SEC but its icon is greyed out (unmanaged).

2. fedora-pc.my.domain appears in unassigned group and is managed and up to date.

The instance in the unmanaged group reappears if I restart the sav services on fedora-pc after deleting it and the instance in the AD group reappears if I resync with AD.

The SEC I am running is 5.1.

Cheers,

Vlad

    Hi Douglas,

    Thanks for the tip. Yep. I updated /etc/hostname to remove the domain bit, deleted fedora-pc.ern.ebor.com from the unassigned group in SEC. A minute or so later, fedora-pc re-appears in the unassigned group without the domain bit. However, it is now greyed-out/unmanaged whereas before, fedora-pc.ern.ebor.com was managed. It still appears in the AD group and greyed out.

    EDIT:

    Forget the above. After restarting the SAV services on fedora-pc, it disappeared from the unassigned group and now appears in the AD group as managed.

    Thanks,

    Vlad
