I'm trying to figure out a small issue, which doesn't seem to make alot of sense to me. I have set up the Administration kit on our domain controller (seemed to make sense) and also installed Anti-virus for windows servers (both on the same machine)

Network agent is obviously installed, but for some reason, the admin kit does not see that any sort of anti-virus is installed on the domain controller/admin kit machine. I have unchecked the "disable external control" within the anti-virus for the server, but I still have to manuall go in and run virus scans when normally i have all of the servers within our organization running at the same time (scheduled event)

Is it normal to not have control of the anti-virus on the same machine as the administration kit, or is that something that shouldn't be happening. It's not a huge problem, but more of an annoyance because most of the virus scans and updates are taken care of automatically except for this machine and even though it's not a huge problem, I'm just wondering if there is some way of fixing it.


Thanks!

You need to have Kaspersky for File Servers installed on your Windows Domain Controller.

Windows File Server is installed on the Domain controller. The file that was downloaded and installed on the domain controller was kav6.0.2.690_winserveren.exe.

It doesn't make any sense to me as to why the plug-in with the administration kit doesn't seem to want to work so that i can control all servers at the same time.

Did you install the full AdminKit include a SQL-Server (MSDE2000 or SQL2003Express) or only the console?

Hi,
You must use remote deployment utility to install KAV for windows server where you installed the administration kit (verify network agent option is enabled).

If you done a manual installation of KAV for windows, unistall kav for windows server from control panel - add and remove programs and reinstall it with a deployment task.

After this, you can find your server clicking on "Groups" folder. Simply using a drag and drop you should be able to put it into your customized group.

If you done a correct installation, you'll be able to fully manage your administrative kit server like a normal windows server, with policy and tasks.

Network agent on administrative kit is not the same of other client, never try to use the standard one manually unistall/install it.

In my case, this has worked fine.

bye

It is NOT necessary at all to uninstall/install KAV for windows server.
Most likely you install only AdminKit console not the AdminKit Server. For more info read AdminKit documentation.
