How to enable the client to update the virus pattern itself from web instead of from the administrator server?

Currently the user is getting the message "update is control by administrator".

Thank you.

You must install the application again.

Before you must change the properties of the package.

Under "Task to be installed" activate the checkbox for update.

Great it work.

Thanks you

This is what I want as the default settings for my environment:
1) KAV Admin Console deploys a default auto-update task to all clients. This task will force all clients to update according to a schedule (every N hours).


2) Both Kaspersky Admin Kit and Kaspersky's update servers are checked as available update sources. When the client does an update, it will look to your KAV server first. If server is not available, it will contact Kaspersky's update servers.


3) Users are given the option to run a manual update.


1 and 2 can be done without any problems. However, item 3 requires re-installation to add the update "task" which is ridiculous. Why do I need to re-install the entire KAV suite to enable 1 task? Even worse is the fact that, once the application is re-installed/re-deployed with the update task, the server-based update task fails so no server-based auto-update once you allow users to manually update. Oh, and users can manually schedule an auto-update but there's no way for administrator to configure or add that auto-update task; it must be done on a per workstation basis.

Is this right? Am I missing something? I hope I'm missing something.

look, when the KAV Win Wks installation package is added to the AK storage, by default, it has no local tasks....this, from a centralized management point of view, it's the best approach. if you want to add local tasks (update or scan ones) you have to change the properties of that installation package...that's it....you must think about it before installing KAV!!! for sure, if you installed it as it comes by default, then you have to reinstall it in order to ADD that local task!
m.

Most AV software come without any local scanning task. That, I understand. What I don't understand is why you have to re-install the whole package in order to "add" a task. You should be able to just deploy an additional task to the client.

I was ranting about this months ago. There should be an option to deploy local tasks to multiple computers.

A (non-scalable) workaround is to go into the properties of the computer in the Admin kit, go to Tasks, then Add


and manually configure a local update task. You would have to do this manually for each computer. A bit less disruptive than reinstalling, but still very labor intensive. I'm just glad I phased in KAV and caught this in the first phase rather than deploying 1700 clients and realizing my mistake.
