connecting workgroup pc

vospersIT

Hi All

ok iv got a copple of workgroup pc's that i need to connect to the console (thats on a domain) no i thought if i just give everyone access to the share this should allow the WG pc's to get there updates but when i try and update them manualy they error with could not connect to the server. iv never put sophos into a mixed WG/domain before so im sort of at a loss.

Kurt.

    Hello Kurt,

    a mixed WG/domain

    is possible, though it depends on your domain's security settings. You must be able to access the share on the domain from a workgroup endpoint using the credentials in the updating policy. Do the workgroup endpoints access any resources on the domain? If not it might be walled off.

    Anyway, what's the detailed error logged in the ALUpdate log?
