Hi Ian Luciano 

Could you please check under if you are able to ping the server. Kindly check this article and check under the log if you find any specific error? 

Yes both server and agent can ping each other. BTW this is my config in SDP

I checked the share settings of \\servername\SophosUpdate and everyones permission are set to read and full control.

Hello Ian Luciano,

it's not downloading from the share that fails, the path in the message is local: C:\Users\ADMINI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\cid_packager_temp\SAVSCFXP\.
The reason is that setup/autoupdate's behaviour has changed (NTP should be installed by default) but SDP is not "in sync" with the changes (it includes the ntp/ntp64 folders only if you explicitly request it).

The error is normal for the initial install (that uses the local directory as update location), afterwards RMS should request amongst others the updating policy from the server and subsequently AutoUpdate will download and install NTP.

Hi Luciano,

I would recommend checking the RMS logs, Router log, and agent logs from the endpoint to see why it that failing to contact the server.

Even if I Select RMS and choose In the package the computer is not appearing in the console's Unassigned group.
