This procedure installs the ZENworks Endpoint Security Client 4.0 on the current machine only.
Verify that all security patches for Microsoft and anti-virus software are installed and up to date. The Endpoint Security Client 4.0 software can be installed on Windows Vista running Support Pack 1.
Novell recommends that antivirus/spyware software that is interacting with valid registry functions be shut down during the installation of the Endpoint Security Client 4.0.
The Managed Endpoint Security Client requires SSL communication to the ZENworks Endpoint Security Management Service component. If you selected “self signed certificates” during the Management Service or the Single Server installation, the endpoint running the Security Client must have the certificate installed in the proper context (preferably in the local computer context).
To do this automatically, place the ESM-MS.cer file in the folder along with the Endpoint Security Client installer’s Setup.exe file. Optionally, you can copy the entire ESM Setup Files folder from the Management Service installation (or Single Server installation) into the folder with the Endpoint Security Client installer Setup.exe (ensure that the ESM-MS.cert is in the ESM Setup Files folder and the folder is named ESM Setup Files). This automatically installs the certificate onto the machine (for example, for all users). This process can also be done with the Novell license.dat file.
