Enterprise console4.5/client9.5 - all PCs greyed out and won't report back, Help please!!

Sophosfan1

I had to reinstalled the console and it assigned itself a new certificate which was different to all the certificates on the existing clients. (I was unable to backup) when I reprotected the clients from the new console it does not automatically dish out a new certificate.

How do I distribute the new certificate?

Note: We have far too many computers to reinstall Sophos on. Plus many remote users :(

Cheers

    Hi again,

    I decided to go through the steps again on the guinea pig pc. This time it worked!!! (I did a little dance) The guinea pig pc is now showing up blue in the console. I think the "Sophos Message Router" service was confused. I could stop the service even though it wasn't  started.

    I now need to make a start up script. Though my scripting skills are laughable.

    We have so many remote users that I will need to send the cac.pem and mrinit.conf files with the start up script. That way the users don't need to rely on the central repository being available.

    Jak you mentioned you would be able to help me write the script, if you are still willing to that would be fantastic!

    Thank you for your input which has resolved my issue :smileyvery-happy:

    Cheers
