Deploying SafeGuard Enterprise to Workgroup PCs

Hi All,

I've installed and configured SafeGuard Enterprise. I've created policies, client packages, and deployed the packages to two test machines. Both machines communicate with the SafeGuard Server and download policies. They don't however encrypt. I see them registered in the ".Auto registered" node but I'm not sure where to go from there.

I guess a couple of questions:

1) How is user creation handled for workgroup environments? All of the guides seem to concentrate on importing user and computer objects from Active Directory, which I'm not doing. This deployment has many stand-alone workgroup computers and has no intention of deploying AD.

2) Where should I start with troubleshooting why BitLocker encryption never starts?

3) Any best practices for workgroup deployments? I don't seem to find any best practice documents that talk about workgroups.

Thanks!

  • Hi ChrisD,

    I've sucessfully encrypted a Windows 8.1 device using SafeGuard (using BitLocker) and set a POA password. However, when I log in as a normal user it never seems to register that user with the SafeGuard server. It shows that user as an SGN Guest in the client status. When I expand the computer information in the SafeGuard Enterprise Console, on the Users tab it only shows the Administrator account. Is there a setting I missed somewhere that tells it to auto-register other new users?

    Thanks!
