This is driving me nutty/mad,
random sep clients fall out of date - week behind or more (virus defs ect). This is on SEP 12.1. If I view the system log on the sep client it says "Downloaded new content update from the management server failed." Remote file path: my sep server path. So on the client I can open a browser and paste in the exact address that it says 'remote file path' and download the file just fine! Ok so sep can clearly communicate with the sep server.
Next I just click live update in the sep client - live update runs without error - updates the virus defs. So why in the ?? Is the client not able to do this itself?
