  • 1.  GPO settings and SEPM

    Posted May 13, 2009 01:32 PM
    Are there any specific GPO settings that need to be domne when deploying SEPM?

    I seem to have one area of about 30 machines not getting updated by SEPM. They are all on a domain with appropriate Group policies. It is not a firewall issue, becasue I can bring another machine there and use the same ethernet cable from the failing machine and that works. Of course the situation gets stranger as no firewall policy is in place with/out GPO. Removing the machine off the domain allows me to get updates so my conclusion is that it has to be GPO related. Im pretty sure of this but I am not sure of what setting is preventing the communication. i wanted to know if anyone is aware or has had issues with GPOs and SEPM, besides the firwall policy.

    Thanks,
    Altria

    Are you defining proxy settings via GPO for those machines having a problem?

    There's no firewall policy in-place, but windows firewall is active?  If this is the case, did you open the applicable ports?  http://service1.symantec.com/support/ent-security.nsf/854fa02b4f5013678825731a007d06af/edda0cd89141a6788025734e004b6a02?OpenDocument

    Try running a GPResult on one of the machines to see the applied policies.

    Use the GPMC (or RSAT for the Vista folks) to sus out what policies are being applied to only these machines and no other.
