This issue has been solved. See solution.

I am evaluating the Protection Suite for Small Business.  The network is some 75 users with Exchange email.  We have Windows 2000, XP, and Windows 7.  A mix of service packs.  Also have about 50 non email users - these pc's have no internet access, the others do.  In my one pc test with XP, I can see that just preparing the clients for installing the protection client will be daunting in itself (I've yet to be able to push a client install sucessfully on the one pc I'm using in my test/evaluation.)

Can youone tell me if I can install a managed client directly from a licensed media?  The demo only allows me to install an unmanaged client.

Thanks you.

Craig

For a managed client first

For a managed client first you will have to install a Symantec endpoint protection manager then export a client package from it..
then you can copy this install package either on a network share or USB stick or burn it..

Check this doc

Thank you for your reply.  I

Thank you for your reply.  I have the manager installed on a Dell 2850.  The manager seems to be working as updates and signature files can be downloaded and installed.  I am currently printing the linked document and will check it out.  As I stated, for whatever is ailing my setup, I cannot push an installation.  I've gone over document 2009010810510248 and verified passwords, file share disabled, etc. etc. All without luck.  That is why I am looking to a direct installation method.

Thanks again.
Craig
