Problem:


The Client Packager tool lets you install the Client/Server Security Agent via email, CD-ROM, or similar media. It compresses the setup or update files into one self-extracting package, which you can email from the Security Dashboard or copy to a CD.

You can use the Client Packager when:
•	Deploying to client computers in remote offices with low bandwidth
•	You cannot install to clients using remote install
•	Installing on clients in a VPN
•	Installing on roaming clients

Environment
•	Client Server Messaging Security for SMB (CSM) 3.0 / 3.5 / 3.6
•	Windows 2000 / 2003 / XP / Vista
•	Windows NT / 98 (only for CS/CSM 3.0)
