After Upgrading to V 9.0 ?

[netwalker1]

Dear All :
I have a problem in my System after I did the upgrade to Symantec Corporate Edition 9 !?

As I used to update my previous system V.8 using the XDB File : - download the file , and then put it in SAV Directory ..

Now I am doing this , but the system doesn't been updated !
Neither The Server been updated nor the clients ..

When I force Liveupdate on the server , it becomes updated , and also it force the update to the client ,,
But i need to use the xdb way ,,

Any idea ?

Heres a copy of a script i used to update v9 and it works, sometimes takes a few mins for server to update. If you run this on the server only.

cegetter.bat

ftp -s:cescript.txt
call "%systemdrive%\Scripts\SAV-Update\navup8.exe"
move %systemdrive%\Scripts\SAV-Update\*.xdb "C:\Program Files\Symantec AntiVirus"
del /q %systemdrive%\Scripts\SAV-Update\navup8.exe


cescript.txt

open ftp.symantec.com
anonymous
nobody@spammer.com
cd public/english_us_canada/antivirus_definitions/norton_antivirus/static
lcd C:\Scripts\SAV-Updatebin
hash
prompt
get navup8.exe
quit

Shall I put the *.xdb file in the C:\Program Files\Symantec AntiVirus

or in C:\Program Files\SAV ?

I orignally had it as SAV for V8 but it seems they have changed things around on V9. My SAV folder is empty and i now have "Symantec Antivirus" folder which is where everything go installed, i just copy the xdb file into there and it seems to work.

You might want to check the folders on your system see what you have.
