deploy Endpoint Protection via group policy without enterprise console

BastianMüller1

Hi,

i want to deploy Endpoint Protection in my network.

I followed the KB 119265, 120611 and 13090.

But in 13090 i need enterprise console wich i have not licensed. also i dont know wat is meant with "The subscription folder number (shown as 'Sxxx' in the script below) should be changed to your associated subscription number." where do i get this subsription number? or is this a enterprise console setting?

I use Sophos central.

is there a tutorial how to deploay via active directory without enterprise console?

thanks

    https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/119265 links to https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/120611 and this has an example batch file to run SophosInstall.exe -q on machines.  It tests if mcsclient.exe exists as a quick marker to save running it each time.

    @echo off
    SET MCS_ENDPOINT=Sophos\Management Communications System\Endpoint\McsClient.exe
    IF "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%" == "x86" GOTO X86_PROG
    IF NOT EXIST "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\%MCS_ENDPOINT%" GOTO INSTALL
    exit /b 0

    :X86_PROG
    IF NOT EXIST "%ProgramFiles%\%MCS_ENDPOINT%" GOTO INSTALL
    exit /b 0

    :INSTALL
    pushd \\servername\share
    SophosInstall.exe -q
    Popd

    So you create your batch file , e.g sophos,bat and put sophosinstall.exe in a shared location on the network. E.g. 

    \\server\share\sophos.bat
    \\server\share\Sophosinstall.exe

    https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/13090 is then provided as an overview on how to run a batch file using a startup script.
