Assigning Mac endpoint running 9.0.5 to defined management group

bruienne

Following this KB: http://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/knowledgebase/119791.aspx I am not able to successfully have a newly added endpoint automatically be added to the desired group. Has anyone tried this yet and/or have any luck making it work? Our setup is pretty basic with a top level group being the desired target. Not sure if having a dash in the name has any negative effect but I'm targeting "\[SERVERNAME]\Test-Clients". No endpoints show up in that group automatically when installing using a modified 9.0.5 MPKG, as directed by aforementioned KB.

Attached is the grouppath.plist file, I sanitized the actual server name. Had to add .txt for the attachment to be accepted.

Thanks,

Pepijn.

    You're right, that was a typo on my part, the name in the plist is the name of the group on the SEC side. It just doesn't seem to be taking effect once the client install completes. I tried both logging out and rebooting after installation but the preferences I expect to be set based on the group policy are not changed. The endpoint is also not added to the group. I'm digging through client-side logs to see if there's any mention of the Group Path setting being picked up and applied/sent to the SEC.
