Hi there,
Am totally new to McAfee and am having a few problems 1 2k3 DC, Epo 4.0 server, 45 XP Clients). Have managed to push out the Agent to a group of clients and then spent sometime trying to install VirusScan 8.5 on the clients using a policy which I couldn't figure out.
I then used the Installation Designer (8.5) to create a .msi file which I'm attempting to push out via Group Policy. This doesn't seem to be working although when 'assigning' it to users it attempts to run on login. I wanted to check that the .msi was OK as a first step. When I double click it from the client, I am getting the error message, 'Please run setup.exe. This allows the proper language strings to be imported into the .msi file' and it bombs out. If I run the setup file created in the same directory McAfee installs fine. Is there a problem with the .msi package or is it something I'm missing? I'm assuming this .exe could be pushed out by a batch file but I'd like to push VS out via GP. Or...(and I'm sure it can be done), what is method for pushing out VS via EPO (4.0).
The above questions may seem a bit novice like...that's 'cos I am!
ps I have read through some documentation but there's a lot of it about and I'd like some first hand info if poss???
Thanks in advance.
