  1. Also, I don't understand why you couldn't have just used the hostname. Yes, it can change; so what? The worst that would happen is you have the client connect to ERAS with the new hostname and the old one just sits in the console waiting for cleanup or manual deletion.

    This will be OK in homogenous network. My network consists of about 30 very small distributed networks, about 850 workstations, with duplicate hostnames, dynamic addresses on Internet side and other mess. For me identification by MAC is the best solution, I was very happy when ESET introduced this in ERAS v.5.

  2. I'm left with option to walk around 60 clients and do manual upgrade. Can you confirm that future upgrades will work via upgrade client task?

     

    ERA: 5.3.33.0

    EEA: 5.0.2254.0

    EES: 5.0.2254.0

     

    You are lucky one with only 60 clients. We have 840 clients and only 50 of them are on-site and in AD. Others are in remote locations, most of them not accessible remotely. And this is the reason I am not happy about this (and not the first) surprise from Eset.

  3. Thanks for fast reply. We have one last question in our external IP survey: How would you use this external IP if available? Only visual confirmation in Webconsole? or you would also expect dynamic groups and client task (task executed on remote machine) to work based on this IP address? switching configuration based on IP address client is using?

     

    For me this feature is essential. I am using these external IP in dynamic groups. We have about 30 remote sites and so we can easily identify client-to-site relation.

  4. I don't know if it's of any interest to you chaps, but this is what I've done.

     

    What I've done is installed ERA6 on a virtual server *at my house* (HyperV) and I manage all the clients from the one place

    Only one ERA server for all clients? Or separate for each client?

    Agents on client workstations installed manually, only configuration and monitoring with ERA?

     

    I am very interested in experience with ERAS 6 and clients in many separate networks. Currently we have about 850 workstations in more than 60 remote locations, no VPNs, no servers on remote sites, one ERAS 5 for all this.

  5. Setting password for clients to connect to ERAS: In ERA Console -> Tools -> Server Options -> Security tab -> Password for clients

    also uncheck 'Enable unauthenticated access for clients'

     

    But first you should set this password on clients, manually

    advanced setup -> Tools-> remote administration

     

    or using ERAS policies.

    You should create new static group and add allowed clients to it.

    Then create new empty child policy below your main policy.and set RA access parameters there

    Then add new policy rule, edit filter 'ERA groups in (your new group)' and move this rule to top.
