This solution is not acceptable

Hudson

I work in a School District that is extremely understaffed.  We have 3000+ computers and 1 person to work on tech problems and one person to manage the network.  Up until this year we ran Sophos as standalone on all machines but setup the console and have managed to get 350 machines in the console.  That still leaves 2700+ computers running Sophos stand alone.  This screw up has affected the large majority of our computers and you expect us to some how go out and touch every one of these machines?  That would take our department probably a year to do.  I need to know the best ideas of what can be done to fix this.  We can not be without updated antivirus for long.  I need suggestions quick because I have people to answer to.

    I know you already know this, but this is going to be extremely difficult since you do not have standardized naming.  You are going to have a do a data dump from each of your DHCP servers to get the full list.  Then, as far as I know, you are going to have to custom-write either a .bat or .vbs file that can copy the data down to each machine.

    Is everybody else getting a dial tone when you call Sophos?  This is absolutely unbelievable.  I feel for you, Hudson.  I'm sorry you're in this situation.
