Hello People
I have some clients with WIndows XP 64bits I install a 64 Client Package and the EndPoint Work Perfect.

The issue is when Windows Start. User login in Windows and EndPoint ask for username and Password to connect to the Proxy Server. The Endpoint icon are full Yellow (Yellow Shield without green dot)

I move the client to a single location group but the issue continue.

I read something about create a script to run when Windows Startup to connect to EPM but I dont see the instructions to do this.

Any Help?
Thanks

On the Client on the UI   Go

On the Client on the UI   Go to help and support  and Click troubleshooting  and in the server  what do you see for the server name.
If the  client is comuincatig with SEPM it will give  the name or ip address of the server.

Try the steps on one machine

1.Copy of the file Sylink.xml from the server from C:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\data\outbox\agent\
2. On the client computer , click Start > Run, type smc -stop, and click OK.
3. Copy the Sylink.xml into the C:\Program Files( X86)\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection folder, and replace any existing Sylink.xml file.
4. Click Start > Run, type smc -start, and click OK.

Also are you using  any proxy in the network ?

Some corrections above...

Since its a 64 bit machine:

Step 3. Copy the Sylink.xml into the C:\Program Files (x86)\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager folder, and replace any existing Sylink.xml file.

Some addtions...

Inaddtion to this,

User login in Windows and EndPoint ask for username and Password to connect to the Proxy Server. The Endpoint icon are full Yellow (Yellow Shield without green dot)

The Yellow dot specifies the Antivirus Defintions are not getting updated.

Check if the Machine is using a Proxy for Internet.

If No, then go to Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Connections > Lan Settings and remove the Proxy Settings from there..

If yes, make sure you have the Proxy settings set right.
