Upgrade 7 -> 9 by replacing two files

petjez

Hi,

we're upgrading our Sophos installations on 2500 PC's from version 7 to version 9. I found out when i push and replace two files to the PC's the upgrade process goes automaticly. We have a very segmented network so our Enterprise Console is not able to find all the machines.

I've replaced: C:\Program Files\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Config\iconn.cfg and

C:\Program Files\Sophos\Remote Management System\mrinit.conf

The two files will redirect the Sophos client to a new server.

So in our test environment the PC's are upgraded to version 9 without any problem. But the PC's are not registered in the new version of the Enterprise Console. Is there a way to let the PC's register themselves to the Enterprise Console? Is there a commandline tool?

Regards,

Patrick

    Hi Christian,

    both servers are still running. If i just replace the iconn.cfg file the 'old' server will take control and downgrade to version 7.

    So we replace both files. After replacing the two files, the PC will upgrade to version 9 and the daily updates are picked up by the client. But the client will not report to the Enterprise Console.

    Where can i find the Sophos Network Communications Report on the client????
