Manage Sophos clients across domains

[maxrebo]

We have 5 Admin pcs on a seperate domain which i would like to add to our Curriculum Sophos Enterprise console to make it easier to manage. Is this possible? (if i added another card with a Admin IP to the curric SEC server)

I could install SEC on the admin server if not but only have 1 server (SIMS server) on this domain and want to limit the load if possible.

 

Cheers

Yep, you can (I've just started doing it at another site).

 

I do it by connecting to the Sophos share from the Admin PC, running the installer and entering the Sophosupdatemgr user in the usual format of domain\sophosupdatemgr

 

Then works the same as any other computer.

BTW - Did you have an IP of the other domain (on the server) for it to work or just a trust between the two domains?

It's a bit of an odd setup at the moment, 2 domains on the same IP range but no trust between them (admin just runs on a selection of static IP's).

 

As long as you are able to access the Sophos Server on your curriculum network from your admin network you'll be fine and no trust will be needed.
