[How to create dynamic group by IP addresses]

Wow, thanks bro

Great to hear that.

 

anytime..!!!

[Another way deployment agent and endpoint together]

 

I know you can create MST transform and deploy through GPO or SCCM.

But if you dont have network with AD it can some trouble,

Anyway deployment with pstools its a good idea, thanks !

But, i missed offline package installation from ERA 5

 

 

 

This script contains 2 file agentcfg.ini and executable file.

[Config]
EndpointURL_32bit="hxxp://192.168.186.1/ENDPOINT/v6/eea_nt32_enu.msi"
EndpointURL_64bit="hxxp://192.168.186.1/ENDPOINT/v6/eea_nt64_enu.msi"
AgentURL_32bit="hxxp://192.168.186.1/ERA/Standalone/Agent/Windows/Agent-6.1.444.0_x86.msi"
AgentURL_64bit="hxxp://192.168.186.1/ERA/Standalone/Agent/Windows/Agent-6.1.444.0_x64.msi"
HostnameServer="192.168.186.1"
ERAPort="2222"
AgentCert="Your BaseCode64 Agent Certificate"
CACert="Your BaseCode64 Authority Certificate"

Edit and change according to your server configuration.

Maybe this trick can helping sysadmin for deployment ESET more easier.

 

Notes : you must compile using autoit for get executable file

 

hello

it is not necessary AD for use Transform file and deploy.

 

and thanks for sharing your scripts

[How to create dynamic group by IP addresses]

What if you use the following expression:

 

OPERATION:  AND (All conditions have to be true)

Network IP address.Adapter IP address greater or equal 172.17.77.1

and Network IP address.Adapter IP address less or equal 172.17.77.254

In my scenario this rule works fine for dynamics group.

Hope this can help.

[ERA Agent Issues]

Hi,

 

I have spent a lot time doing a thousand of different ways to deploy the endpoint, and I found that the smoothest and efficient way is firstly remove the old enpoints, in my scenario the clients computers have ESET smart security version 4 & ESET nod32 Antivirus version 4 installed, you can remove the endpoint in a massive way with pstools deploying the following script (example):

 

start /wait "" msiexec /x \\servername\ESET\SmartSecurity\essbe_nt64_enu.msi /qn /li "C:\%computername%_gp-secx64.log"

 

and yes,, if necessary the reboot to complete the uninstallation.

 

(also I see other comments that if you have eset endpoint 5 the upgrade must work with the single instruction msiexec /x)

 

another way...  I have create a gpolicy in active directory, and in the scripts of shutdown options I configured the uninstaller command, then and same policy configure the software installation with the MSI + the MST files.  so the client computer during the shutdown process must remove the old endpoint and during the start up process must install the new endpoint. (actually this is the process that is working better).

......

 

hope this can help

[ERA Agent Issues]

Hello Mfichera

I have the same issue.

But I found another ways to deploy the agent+endpoint, and it is working fine in my scenario.

[how can I set up an install to run silently without using the push method from ERAS]

To suppress any dialogs shown by EEA or EES after installation, you can use INSTALLED_BY_ERA=1 msi parameter.

 

good for that one. it is working pretty good

I wonder is there a way to add this parameter for installation with gpolicy from active directory ?

thanks

[Deploying preconfigured msi packages 6.X How ?]

Hello Anto 33.

[Can you configure the Run command to do the Request Config feature?]

There is "Export Managed Products Configuration" client task that you can run on whole group if you want. You can also select that you want configuration from only Security Product (EES/EEA).

Hello, could you explain a bit more about how "Export Managed Products Configuration" client task works ?

Is this task force to push the configuration to the target pc? If yes, How do you specify what configuration push?

I have had some issues when clients that not refresh firewall rules, so for me , the quickier solution is remove and re-deploy the agent + endpoint.

[Another way deployment agent and endpoint together]

Thanks for share,

I had to find another way to deploy instead of ERAS console too.

I just create an exe file with winrar and put inside an small script with the following instructions:

start /wait " " msiexec /i \\fileserver\sharename\agent.msi /qn TRANSFORMS=\\fileserver\sharename\agent.mst /li c:\agent.log

start /wait " " msiexec /i \\fileserver\sharename\endpoint.msi /qn /li c:\endpoint.log

Now you can deploy the exe (or the batch file) with pstools.

I have made successfully deployments with tools like: pstools, Active Directory-GPolicy and Lansweeper.

Note. In the ERAS guide you can find how to create the transform file.

Hope this can help.

[After putting Vmware tools, I got "First time appliance configuration was not possible"]

Please check virtual machine properties -> Options tab -> vApp Options is set to Enable, then OVF Settings, section OVF Environment Transport, ISO Image is also checked. Save settings and restart machine.

Hello

This tip not fix the warning (in my case).

thanks

[After putting Vmware tools, I got "First time appliance configuration was not possible"]

Hi Jedduff,

 

I have the same issue, and happen with ERA Server & Proxy OVAs.

 

I glad to hear you are using vmware viirtual appliances.

 

although the server is working properly I hope some else have found a fixed for this bug.

 

regards.

[Not happy with ERA 6]

Shawkins.

 

I have experimented almost the same issues that you have.

and I have spent a lot of time resolving issue by issue, that I would like to share.

 

because my scenario is that we have a classic Squid Proxy for the Internet access, the activation issue was solved adding the following lines in the httpd.conf of the apache server configuration from the ERAS Server :

 

ProxyRequests On

ProxyVia On
ProxyRemote * hxxp://squidserverhostname:3128

 

This was successful tested in Windows & Virtual Appliance (Linux Centos 6)

 

also make sure you have this PC client configuration in Advanced setup/Tools/Proxy:

Proxy server = use proxy server enabled

Proxy server = hxxp://erasserverhostname

Port = 3128

 

you can create an Eset Securty Product Policy to push the above config.

This configuration may solve the update definitions issues.

 

I would like to hear if this can help.

regards.

 

 

[Whenever I install the agent manually the machine will not communicate with the ERA server]

Hi Brad.

 

Could you post the information of the following files: status & trace (from a PC Client with the issue)

 

C:\ProgramData\ESET\RemoteAdministrator\Agent\EraAgentApplicationData\Logs

 

Also maybe you have already tried, if not, turn off the firewall in both sides, PC & ERAS server.

 

regards.

[I have a problem with the installation of ERA6 on CentOS6.6]

Hi,

The Virtual Appliance (OVA) is not an option for you?

Saludos.

[Whenever I install the agent manually the machine will not communicate with the ERA server]

did you try with the scrips generated from your ERAS server? It is a bat file then you can run manually in the pc clients.

Hope this can help.
