PureMessage installed - Manage Sophos AV with Enterprise Console

Question

I recently installed PureMessage for Exchange. As expected, it installed Sophos Endpoint Protection with the proper Exchange exclusions. How do I "move" the EPP protection of my exchange server to the our Enterprise Console that controls EPP for our desktop computers? I've built the updating policy and have a group for the exchange server in SEC, but am confused on how to bring it in as a managed computer.

Hello mpq247, only the last item (6) is of relevance. I read between the lines that running setup.exe from the CID won't harm the Puremessage installation (might not even be necessary to uninstall AutoUpdate first). Another option would be: Open the SESC GUI -> Configure updating Set the Primary location to the applicable CID (your update location) Set the Secondary to Sophos, close the GUI Edit the file C:\ProgramData\Sophos\AutoUpdate\Config\iupd.cfg , scroll to the section ;RMS 2000/XP

AllowLocalConfig = 1 change the next line (likely contains Action = 0x200107 ) to Action = 0x 4 00107 AutoUpdate should then download RMS from the CID and install it. HTH Christian :57154
