Vista and Sophos
Posted by bluescreened on 7 December , 2007
Sophos, a wonderful tool. however, if you have used EMConsole, you will realise how useful a tool that is. you will also realise how annoyingly vague some of the errors are.
If (like me) you have been trying to push out Sophos to a vista client, and keep getting error messages along the lines of “Install on this computer, what computer? where?”
I would like to draw your attention to This Link
In brief, you need to open up parts of the firewall (or, in my case as I am behind a couple of the things, turn it off completely), start the remote registry service, and fiddle with a setting of UAC in the local security policy (I really do not like UAC!)
This will then make all your sophos worries float away
