This solution is not acceptable

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.

  • Hi,

    I would suggest that you focus on the 2000 machines that have the clean up option set to delete. As this is the majority and the remaining machines will be easier.

    I would focus on one individual client first. Does the article 118323 resolve the issue?

    You may need to create a WebCid - KB 38238 to get the script to function correctly.

    If the above script does work, how would you normally manage these machines e.g. Install applications? Do you push them out via a application or do you get the end users to install them? You could put the script into a batch file and push this out via the method you use.
