unmanaged client.
BTW, what I was looking for ... I finally found it on page 115 of the "Administration Guide for Symantec Endpoint Protection and Syamantec Network Access Controll" - thanks for your help !!
.If you installed unmanaged clients from the installation CD, the clients do not
trust and do not process LiveUpdate content or policy updates for security
purposes. To enable these clients to process updates, you have to create the
following registry key:
HKLM\Software\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\SMC\TPMState
Set the value to hexadecimal 80 so that the key looks like 0x00000080 (128)
After you set this key, you must either restart the computer or execute the
following commands from the \Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\
directory:
smc.exe -stop
smc.exe -start
The inbox folder appears in the following location on the client computers that
do not run Windows Vista:
\\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\ Symantec
Endpoint Protection\inbox\
The inbox folder appears in the following location on the client computers that
do run Windows Vista:
\\Program Data\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection\inbox\
You can now use third-party distribution tools to copy content or policy updates
to this directory. The Symantec client software then trusts and process the content.
You get the content to distribute from a Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager
almost the same way that you do for managed clients.
However, copy index2.xml from the My Company group, instead of copying
index2.dax from your managed client group directory. Copy the full.dax file as
described for the managed client. You can then distribute these files. You can also
drop .vdb and .jdb files in the client inbox for processing.
Note: If you stage the update files on the computers, you must copy them to the
inbox. The update files are not processed if you move them to the inbox.
