Will stand-alone clients automatically upgrade from 9.5 to 9.7?

stevecrye

Hi;

Our license terms allow us to installed Sophos on personal computers at home. Those computers cannot be managed by the console. Is there a way to have stand-alone clients automatically upgrade between minor version numbers?

Thanks,

Steve

    Ahhh... I should have caught that.

    I tested and indeed after triggering an update, the stand-alone 9.5 client went and obtained the 9.7 update. After a reboot the client now reports 9.7.  Very nice, no obvious problems.:smileyvery-happy:

    But, although this works and is easier than manually downloading and installing 9.7, I'm still wondering if there is a way to make the stand-alone client automaticallty check for, and then apply without user intervention, minor version updates.

    I was not even aware that 9.7 was out until I happened to visit the Sophos website. (I'm not on the team here at work that is responsible for the Enterprise Console and the managed clients).

    Thanks,

    Steve
