NOD32 Enterprise Edition

A package which includes NOD32 antivirus system and NOD32 Remote Administrator for deploying and managing NOD32 in both small and large enterprises.

Here are the basic steps to take when setting up Enterprise Edition of NOD32:

• Using your Username and Password, download and install NOD32 Administration version (the Mirror version) onto your server (http://u4.eset.com/download/win/v2ad/ndntenad.exe)
• Update it first and then:
  • Check 'Create update mirror'
  • Check 'Enable access to files via the HTTP protocol'
  • Check 'Require permission to perform program component upgrade'
  • Check the 'Available versions' you require for your network. ie: Win9x machines and/or WinNT machines.
  • Create a path to a Mirror somewhere on your server. C:\Mirror is fine, but you can choose to create this wherever you wish .
• Save the nod32.lic key that was attached to your email, to the desktop for the time being.
• Using your Username and Password, download and install NOD32 Remote Administrator Server (RAS) onto your server (http://u4.eset.com/download/ra/rasrvnten.exe) which includes standard NOD32 installers for Win95/98/ME & WinNT/2000/XP, but which might not be the very latest versions.
• During the installation you will be asked to locate the nod32.lic key.
• Using your Username and Password, download and install NOD32 Remote Administrator Console (RAC) onto your server and/or any machine that you want to administrate your clients from. ie: your workstation, your laptop, etc. (http://u4.eset.com/download/ra/raconsnten.exe)
• Optional - If you wish to ensure that your clients receive the very latest version of NOD32 as soon as you install, you should download the appropriate versions:
  • Using your Username and Password, download only NOD32 for Windows NT/2000/2003/XP - standard onto your server (http://u4.eset.com/download/win/v2st/ndntenst.exe) assuming you have machines running this OS in your network.
  • Using your Username and Password, download only NOD32 for Windows 95/98/ME - standard onto your server (http://u4.eset.com/download/win/v2st/nd98enst.exe) assuming you also have machines running this OS in your network. If not, there's no need to download this version.
  • Save these 2 installers into the RA folder.
  • Note: even if you use the 'built-in' NOD32 installers inside RAS, your clients will receive a Program Component Upgrade fairly soon after the remote installations have completed. You can choose when to allow your clients to receive the upgrade (see Mirror setup window).

The initial downloading of components is complete now.

Points to watch out for:

• In some network configurations, 'Simple file sharing' may need to be turned off on your WinXP clients.
• Make sure any firewalls on the clients does not also interfere with connections during installation.
• As a rule of thumb, IMON should not be enabled on any server.
• Make sure, as you are the administrator of your network, you have set your administrator's logon name and password to access all your clients. If the password is left blank, connection to your clients will not work.

Run RAC:

• Go to Tools ---> Console options ---> Connections ---> Add/Remove, and enter the name or IP address of your server ---> click OK.
• From the 'Select Connection' box, choose the server name you've just added.
• Press 'Connect'.
• You will be asked for a password -- it is blank by default, but can be changed later in the server options menu.
• In the 'Current state of connection' window, you should see the name of the server. If true, press OK.
• You may add connection to SMTP server also if you have a mail server address and you wish to install on some clients via email: Tools ---> Server Options ---> Configuration tab.

Create an installation package:

• From RAC, click on 'Remote Install' tab.
• 'Packages'.
• In the 2nd text box from the top, choose 'Default'
• Now press 'Save as...' and call the package a name of your choice.
• Click 'Edit' to enter details for your workstations to update from and change any settings/options/scheduled tasks, etc. in NOD32 that you wish your clients to adopt.
• IMPORTANT: Under the General\Settings\Remote Administration section, check that 'Connect to RAS: Yes' is set and also that the correct name or IP address of your server is entered (only the name or IP address should be entered).
• IMPORTANT: Under the Update\Profile\Settings section, add the server's address for where the clients will be updating from. By default it will say 'AUTOSELECT'. Edit this to: http://yourservername:8081
• When finished choose to save the configuration.
• You'll now return to the Packages window. You may like to check the 'Command Line options' (bottom right hand corner link) to amend the default: /SILENTMODE /INSTMFC (For example: you might want to add /REBOOT to make your clients automatically reboot when the installation is complete).
• Click the 'Save' button.

Push the installation:

• Still on the 'Remote Install' tab in RAC, click on the 'Install' button.
• In the new window, Package text box, select your new package.
• In the left hand panel, locate your clients and drag them over to the right hand panel.
• Select maybe one client to start with and click the 'Install' button at the foot of the panel.
• If successful, choose all other clients and install.
• Go to the 'Clients' tab in RAC, and within 5 minutes (default), you'll see your clients appear in the list.
