„Using VSSETUP

Using the Push Install utility

During the push installation procedure, select Set as Relay Server(s) before clicking Install Enforced Client (see step 10 under Installation on page 44).

You must perform a separate push operation to push files to relay servers and non-relay servers, because you cannot push to both at the same time.

Using VSSETUP

During a silent installation, or at any time after Enforced Client has been installed on a computer, you can run the vssetup command with the variable that specifies a computer as a relay server. The vssetup syntax differs, depending on whether this is an initial installation or an existing installation. (See Silent installation on page 39 for more information.)

Initial installation

During an installation, vssetup uses the following syntax to specify a computer as a relay server:

VSSETUP.EXE /RelayServer=1

If you do not specify the computer as a relay server during the installation process, the default is 0 (off), and the computer is not a relay server.

Changing an existing configuration

You can edit an existing installation using vssetup with the SetRelayServerEnable parameter.

„Specify a computer as a relay server:

VSSETUP.EXE /SetRelayServerEnable=1

„Change a current relay server computer so that it is no longer a relay server:

VSSETUP.EXE /SetRelayServerEnable=0

Completing the installation

After installing Enforced Client, perform these procedures on each client computer to ensure that the software is working correctly and the computer is protected. (Users can read instructions for performing these procedures in the online Installation Instructions or User Help.)

„Test virus protection

„Scan the client computer

„Scan the email Inbox

„Set up the default firewall
