Hello,
I recently inherited a network running Sophos on all client machines. Our client machines are primarily all running Mac OSX although we do have a few booting into W7. When I connected to our Sophos server, I'm noticed a message on the majority of our computers saying "awaiting policy transfer." Most of these are all under the same group (named Mac), but there are one or two exception machines from this Mac group which seem to be updating just fine. All of the clients are pointing to the same location for their primary/secondary updates.
Based on what I'm seeing from the SEC, the last time most of these machines received updates was the summer of last year. I have limited documentation, so I'm hoping some members of the community may know what's going on. Do note that the majority, if not all, of our Windows 7 boots are receiving updates correctly.
Researching this issue, I've seen people mentions firewall ports, accessibility problems accessing the update folder, and more. The clients should have no problem connecting to the update server as the location given is correct, and I'm doubting it's the firewall as the necessary ports are open. I'm wondering if we simply need to re-download the Sophos client on each machine, as my understanding is that my organization pushes out a new image every Summer.
