  • 1.  ClientRemote Install Issues

    Posted Nov 20, 2009 03:30 PM
    I am currently running SAV Corporate Edition and 10.1.8.8000 Symantec System Center. When I select Tools/ClientRemote Install and drill down until I get to my domain name under Select Computer, I am not seeing all of the prospective clients that I should be able to see in my Windows 2003 Active Directory domain. If I can't see them, I can't push SAV to them. I've looked at my DNS and the machines that I want to push to are correctly listed in DNS. Any suggestions at this point would be welcomed.

    Use a text file with the ip address of all the clients to whome you want to push sav.

    type ip address in the text file one below the other like

    10.33.1.1
    10.33.1.2
    10.33.1.3


    like this and save the text file.

    use this text file to push sav .

    Are you disabling the Windows firewall on the clients first?

    "Disable the Windows XP firewall
    Windows XP includes a firewall that can interfere with Symantec AntiVirus installation communications between servers and clients. On any servers or clients run Windows XP, you must disable the Windows XP firewall before you install Symantec AntiVirus client software."

    Hope this helps,

     Well its not a SAV problem it is totally the Windows Networking you will have to set.
    Client Remote install picks up the clients that are listed in My network Places of that computer.
