Client is a bit CPU intensive during scanning, not autoprotect by itself. Really small businesses probably don't need a management console. The may use unmanaged clients (not the best) , but a dedicated XP machine for the task is not a problem nowadays. Corporate Edition is still available GuidoElia HELPPC
_____ Da: kenw [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Inviato: lunedì 25 febbraio 2008 0.46 A: NT System Admin Issues Oggetto: RE: Symantec Endpoint Protection Feedback I found the management console inappropriate for small sites or virtual servers - it wanted half a CPU all by itself, continuously, even with only a half-dozen PCs to manage. And I found the client portion far too CPU-intensive as well, inappropriate for virtual machines. Haven't tried MR1. Sounds like you have a single, relatively large site where you can dedicate a single machine to the console. Not gonna happen for small businesses. /kenw From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: February-24-08 5:37 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Symantec Endpoint Protection Feedback No problems on our end. would have prefered to switch to something new, but it looks like we might do that in 2009 after some more research. The server component (as was already said) is absolutely hefty. We ended up installing it on our WSUS box (PowerEdge 860) and scrapping our old SAV server (PowerEdge 2400). That was a little tricky because they both have web sites that install as default with no host headers setup. SAV's actually needs to be on 80 with the defaults (also have it as sav.domain.com, but the server console looks on localhost:80), and WSUS we have setup on 80 as well but with host headers (wsus.domain.com) with no problems. Anyway, it's been fine so far, although our one support call had a hold time of over 60 minutes.

Symantec AV doesn't get much praise here but so far it was working OK for us. No major complaints. If you have anything positive/negative to share pls let me know what to look out for. regards Osama Salah _____ Disclaimer:This communication contains information that is confidential and may also be legally privileged.
