Enterprise Console Installation

I am new to Sophos and I am in search of suggestions on how to install and configure the Enterprise Console and Update Managers. I have a single Active Directory domain with three sites (each site is a physical location). My concern is this - our remote sites are connected via WAN links that are oftentimes very congested. I would like to manage and update computers at each site from a server on that site. Therefore, my question what needs to be installed where? Do I need an Enterprise Console at each site or do I need a single Enterprise Console and Update Managers at the other sites? I've read through the documentation and it never really addresses a single domain with multiple sites. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  • I have recently upgraded to Enterprise console 4.0. I have been having problems installing The Sophos update manager on a workgroup station that will be used to download directly from sophos and distribute updates to the workstaions at each site.   The workstation is a windows xp and presently have emlibrary intstall and working properly on it however when i try to install the update manager by browsing the the share SUMInstallSet it give the errpr messages  "Erro 2500 7 : The windows API call control service failed. The error  return was 14001"  Having browse the sophos site for the error the solution I found said there r missing files and i should run the file at the bootstrap Location , however when i try this i get the error " windows cant access the file or you may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

    When I  try to install the update manager from the SUMinstallset on a new windows 2003 server the installation goes through but I dont see the computer in the update manager list hence i can't configure it.
