Distributing a configuration
Using a local update server – Mirror – you can also distribute a
configuration for NOD32, by which the workstations will be configured at the
next attempt to update. In order to automatically distribute a configuration,
set the update server on the workstations to http://IP_address_of_your
_server:8081 (if it is the version with an HTTP server) or to \\MAIN\
NOD32NET (if it is the version with a shared folder).
Place the configuration XML file on the server. The configuration itself is
created on the same PC where the mirror is created. Click on the Mirror
button in the Update section in the NOD32 Control Center, and then click
on the Setup button. In the Mirror Setup dialog window, click on Setup in
Configuration files . After clicking on the Setup button, select Add , then
New and create a new configuration file. Save the new configuration file
anywhere on the local disk, EXCEPT for the folder that holds the Mirror.
After this is done, the application
NOD32 Configuration Editor is launched
(see page 17 for more details). After required changes are made, save
them by clicking on the diskette in the upper part of the window. Then just
close the window and click OK to return to the NOD32 Control Center.
Now, by clicking on the Update button in the Mirror for local updates
section, the configuration file will be generated in the folder with the Mirror.
The presence of the configuration file in the update folder / mirror will
ensure, that the workstations will, besides downloading updates, apply this
configuration also.
