Logon Scripts for EPO 3 installs 1

[TTA89]

Here is the problem. I need to upgrade all the clients to the new 3.0 EPO Agent which is on a different server than where the old EPO Agents are currently reporting into.

So we are trying to write a script for logon that will detect if 3.0 is installed, if not it will install it. Mcafee says the only way to tell if the EPO3 agent is installed is to look for a registry entry.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Network Associates\ePolicy Orchestrator\Agent

Does anyone have a script written to do this already or know how to write one to look for a reg entry?

Thanks!

We use a logon script to check if ePo is installed but it doesn't check for a registry key. I'll have to post it tomorrow when i get back to work.

Here is a Kixtart script and batch file:

Thanks!!!!

Why are you doing a /forceinstall /install=agent on this?

Here is the script we use to check for the installation of the agent then if it is not present, install the agent.

IF NOT EXIST &quot;C:\Program Files\EPOAgent\naimas32.exe&quot; GOTO CHECK_1

&quot;C:\Program Files\EPOAgent\Aginst32.exe&quot; /remove

&quot;\\Ryapp01\Client\Epolicy Agent\Framepkg.exe&quot; /s /install=agent GOTO NO_EPO_INSTALL

:CHECK_1

IF NOT EXIST &quot;C:\EPOAgent\naimas32.exe&quot; GOTO CHECK_2

&quot;C:\EPOAgent\Aginst32.exe&quot; /remove

&quot;\\Ryapp01\Client\Epolicy Agent\FramePkg.exe&quot; /s /install=agent GOTO NO_EPO_INSTALL

:CHECK_2

IF EXIST &quot;C:\Program Files\Network Associates\Common Framework\UpdaterUI.exe&quot; GOTO NO_EPO_AGENT

&quot;\\Ryapp01\Client\Epolicy Agent\FramePkg.exe&quot; /s /install=agent

:NO_EPO_AGENT
