Re: Trend Micro - Remote office

If the remote office is connected via VPN, the computers can be clients of
the CSM installed on the SBS. If they're not connected via VPN, there are
two other options that still allow you to use your existing CSM installation
....

a) make them roaming clients, they'll update directly from Trend's servers.
b) publish your Trend web from the SBS to the internet, and have the remotes
join/install and update that way. I've never done this, but it should
certainly be possible.

This should help you remove Norton from your workstations... (Note:
ALWAYS remove Norton before installing any other AV software. Don't rely
on another AV product to remove it for you - as you found out).

Removing Norton AntiVirus 2003 or earlier by using the Rnav2003.exe
removal utility when Add/Remove programs fails

Remove Norton AntiVirus 2005/2004 installed as a stand-alone product or as
a part of Norton SystemWorks 2005/2004 or Norton Internet Security
2005/2004

AV Recommendations

I'm assuming your remote network doesn't have a server. You could buy
additional licenses for CSM and then just install everything but the
Exchange package on a Windows XP Pro workstation (running Apache Web
server 2.0) on your remote network. (Combine all the licenses under one
license number). Essentially, this gets you Trend's Client/Server suite
at the remote office. Or, you could separately purchase Trend CS and
install it on a WinXP Pro workstation (running Apache Web server 2.0).
All workstation should then be left on 24/7 to pick up the latest AV
updates from the WinXP Pro (server) workstation.

I recently purchased and installed Trend Micro CSM using Wayne Small's
guide
from SBSfaq.com.

Several things I'm running into, that maybe someone can help me with.

1. What would be a good antivirus solution for our remote office that is
not
logging into the domain?

2. When I tried installing on one client machine locally, CSM first
attempted to remove Norton Internet Security, but the remove failed.
Now, I
cannot even remove Norton via add/remove programs. Anyone ever ran into
something like this?

Thanks for the help!
