I've found a solution to my earlier problem with machines that differs from policy. The errors that have been achknowledge, must also be se as authorized in the group policy. So i would like to summerise this topic. Subject: errors in Sophos Console v3. Problems: alot of computers are listed in "computers with error" -Many computeres are telling to reboot, even if the gets a reboot daily --Solution: Run this SQL command: -Many computers differs from policy. / Showing error with files month or weeks old. (Even if the have been dealt with). --Solution: Achknowlegde the error, and remember to update group policy to allow or warn on the files that have been achknowledge. -Some Computers are out-of-date, and can't get Sophos Anti-V. installed from console / are awating policy from console. --Solution: *hoping to find a answer*

Simpel Fileshareing is turned off. -Neither helps. Anyways, running the sql script was a success, eliminated 75 of the machine errors. -Thanks for that. New problem is a huge amout of machines now differs from policy :?. I will try to remove it by the Removal script today on the troublesome machines.

shall the batchfile run on the client? ive tried to remove it by add/remove in windows. if i try the sql. could i please get a explanation on how to run it?

Greeting . After tried for 2 weeks to solve some issues with Sophos Console 3.0 i now turn to this board. My problem is, i've got 3 computers that won't communicate with the console, neither update, add policies or install(protect...). It is possible to install the client manually, but still same error as above. I've been through Sophos support site over and over, but neither helps.. The computers have their firewalls turned off, can be seen and accessed by other console software (not anti-virus). Also, the console keep telling restart is needed for update on a big amout of machines. -The log says this error is dated 25-10-2007. But its still showing, even though the machines reboots every day at 5 am.. The Console is on a Windows 2003 server. If other details are need, please post, and i will do my best to prodvide. -Its not all the machines that shows a error.. A quick overview. -Old errors are still showing warnings. Even if they have been acknowled. -The console won't find some of the machines. -Server is MS 2003. -The clients are using windows XP sp2. -No firewalls / in a domain.
