logon script for endpoint
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 2 comments
Is there a way like Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition 10.x has to install the endpoint client with a logon script?
I checked around and don't see anything on this.
Or is there a way to check a computer in a domain when a user logs on to see if symantec endpoint is installed and if its not to install symantec endpoint.
Symantec av has this. Can you do something similar with endpoint?

Hi,
The sep clients can be installed via group policy objects. When the users login, a logon script can be run to install the SEP client.
This method is used if you have a major deployment required, for example 2000 + machines to be installed. You can find the details of this method in the installation giode that comes with the product.

Do you have a standard install location?
If you absolutely want to install it via a script, you would need to ensure the user(s) have the right to install software on the machine.
You could install it via GPO, however, if it is already installed from a different method, you might end up with 2 installs or other problems. MSI packages create their own registration keys in the Registry. Alternatively, you could deploy from the SEPM manager itself.

Something like that can work from a batch file or being called from or added to a Logon script. Probably be integrated into Kixstart or Scriptlogic if you use those...
