Hi Folks,
We are a company with 10 total locations counting Corporate with just under 100 PC's. Except for the iSeries 810 and a Linux server appliance (only using the email part of it) there is no other server. All remote sites are connected via TCP/IP over Frame Relay.
I have been talking with the tech support folks at the antivirus vendor we use (Sophos) and they have an application that sits on a server and that gets updates and then pushes the updates to the client PC's.
I told them what we were using (the iSeries) and I do not think they were familiar with it but I got this back:
It sounds like in your situation, making use of our remote update utility would be the best option. What you could do is take the CD (or use EM Library..) and keep a central install up to date on your mainframe server. As long as the clients can go \\servername\sharename <file:///\\servername\sharename> or \\ipaddress\sharename <file:///\\ipaddress\sharename> then remote update can grab the files and keep the systems up to date.
And the thought occurred to me that I could use the IFS for this - maybe ?
Any comments/thoughts ?
Thanks !
Chuck
