verus 4 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I installed: ESET Remote Administrator (Server), Version 6.1.265.0ESET Remote Administrator (Webconsole), Version 6.1.212.0 I configured a policy but my clients are not updating. The documentation on ERA 6 doesn't mention this too, if you sell a new product, the documentation should be complete. On server side I have: SERVER SETTINGS > UPDATES > update server = [autoselect] on the policy I have: SETTINGS > UPDATE > [myProfile] > BASIC > UPDATE SERVER > hxxp://192.168.x.x ==> ip address of the ERA server on the client I get: File not found on server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ESET Moderators TomasP 302 Posted December 30, 2014 ESET Moderators Share Posted December 30, 2014 Hello verus, you did not mention which version of Endpoint you have installed on the client computers. Anyway, ERA v6 does not offer the mirror feature in the same way as previous versions anymore. You can either set the clients to update directly from ESET's servers, or you can create a mirror by another Endpoint product - not by ERA v6, though. A new feature in ERA v6 is that if you installed the HTTP Proxy feature during ERA installation, it can cache the update files locally so that clients which are set to update from the ERA server's IP address don't have to download the files from our servers via the proxy again, but use the cached files instead, thus saving bandwidth. Was this was you meant in your initial question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verus 4 Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 Hi thanks for the reply. This is a new installation (just bought 200 licenses a few weeks ago) and the antivirus client is version 6.1.2109.0 This is exactly what I meant, I wanted the clients to update via the local server to limit internet traffic. If I can do it with that http proxy, it's fine too, is there documentation about that ? Will the clients also update when they are not connected in the network ? (when they work remotely) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verus 4 Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) About the HTTP proxy, can I add it to the existing installation ? Edited December 30, 2014 by verus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arakasi 549 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Laptops and devices that leave your LAN, will not receive updates if you have the mentioned cache setup, or a mirror for that matter, as the Local IP of your server is what goes in the clients. However for all the clients that leave the premise and are abroad, you can set a policy for those to update server = [autoselect] and when they leave or go offsite they will get updates from ESET servers. When they return you can change their policy or settings back to the local server IP to begin receiving updates locally instead of leaving the dmz and going in/out as internet traffic.

Arakasi 549 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) With Endpoints it works like the same as if you did this with File Security. See attached picture I as well am still using version 5 and the mirror was created on several of my networks using the feature in ERA5.

verus 4 Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) - Via the setup, I installed the APACHE HTTP PROXY during installation, is that the same as REMOTE ADMINISTRATOR PROXY in the install directory ? - I try to install the proxy via the installer directory and I have to choose a SQL/MySQL server but the installation was already done with SQL express ? Then why do I need another SQL/MySQL server ?? Edited December 31, 2014 by verus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can it set like ver5 just key in user name and pw on each clients? Answer is yes. You can actually input the lic file and the username/password into a policy and all the clients will have the credentials for ESET entered into themselves and the setting for Choose best server, will allow the clients to go to ESET servers, hxxp://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN332 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arakasi 549 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Hi, via the installer directory When you say this ... What exactly do you mean ? These are the directions i am looking at : Open ApacheHttp.zip and extract the files to C:\program files\apachehttpproxy Do you get that prompt after "httpd.exe -k install -n Apachehttpproxy" from the command prompt ?

Arakasi 549 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) I would recommend, going to page 34 in the manual, and starting from there going down. It even lists prerequisites, A Db server already installed and conf, etc Foneil do we have a KB already for ERA 6 mirror replacement instructions by proxy if we lost it after verison 5 ? Maybe Tomas can provide a breakdown or step by step. Continue to check back. Edited December 31, 2014 by Arakasi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verus 4 Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 What is the difference between the "apache http proxy" and "Proxy-6.1.265.0_x64.msi" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arakasi 549 Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 One thing to add from the manual is that it recommends using ms sql but that seems to be only if large networks, how many clients will be used ? express is recommended for less then 5000, also express is installed by default and is part of the install package. Proxy installation - windows....... is the same as Remote Admin Proxy I would assume that msi contains the apache http proxy inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verus 4 Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 I installed the apache proxy with the ERA server installation, which works fine now (our installation is 200 clients so not that much). This ERA6 looks good but documentation is a little bit unclear sometimes and I hope that KB articles will get as good as they are for version 5 and hopefully policies etc to download.

ESET Staff CB530 70 Posted December 31, 2014 ESET Staff Share Posted December 31, 2014 What is the difference between the "apache http proxy" and "Proxy-6.1.265.0_x64.msi" Hi Verus, We are currently in the process of developing more comprehensive documentation for the HTTP Proxy and Proxy Server components, and plan to have it available for global launch in February. Thank you for your patience while we make this documentation ready. With regards to your question about the two different proxy types, "proxy_X64.msi" refers to the ERA Proxy Server, which is used to distribute load to the ERA Server. "apache http proxy" is a separate component, which can be used to serve a similar role to a mirror server in ERA 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to track this down and the ESET error and my Google searches for "big blocks" and MySQL don't seem to turn up anything helpful. For anyone else looking for this I found this in the documentation: Q: How do I configure MySQL to accept large packet size? A: Locate your MySQL configuration file (my.ini for Windows and my.cnf for Linux, exact location of the .ini file might differ from one operating system to another), open this file and find the section [mysqld]. Add a new line max_allowed_packet=33M (value must be at least 33M or greater). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By documentation MySQL should read these settings first. I've added max_allowed_packet=33M under the [mysqld] tag. Also tried 60M 128M and restartet computer everytime. What else could be wrong?
