Using the IPXFER.exe tool |
|
|
Do the following: |
|
|
A. | On the server |
|
|
|
|
| Extract the attached ipXfer.zip file into the ..\PCCSRV\ directory on the OSCE server. |
|
| Note: To open the file, use the password "novirus" without the quotes. |
|
|
|
B. | On the client machine |
|
| 1. | Make sure that the workstation can access the \\Officescan_server\ofcscan directory on the OSCE server. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 2. | Click Start >Run. Type cmd on the field. Enter the following commands: |
|
|
|
| ipXfer.exe -m 1 -s < server > -p < IIS_TCP_port > -c < client_listening_port > -q 1 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Note: The -s and -c parameters should not contain the < > brackets. The -q switch only applies to the newer version of ipXfer.exe included in OSCE 5.5 and above. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Switches: |
|
|
| • | -m installation mode: 1->HTTP-based 0->File-based |
|
|
|
| Note: Mode 0 is not valid for OfficeScan 5.5. |
|
|
| • | -s < server >: [server_FQD_name| server_wins_name| server_IP_address | UNC_path_to_Server] |
|
|
| • | -p< IIS_TCP_Port >: The default value is 80. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| To identify the correct value to be supplied for the IIS_TCP_PORT, do the following: |
|
|
|
| a. | Check the IIS Management Console >Default Web site properties >TCP port |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| b. | Check the server directory on c:\..\pccsrv\ofcscan.ini for the "MASTER_DOMAINPORT" value |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| • | -c < officescan client listening port > Check the OfficeScan server directory c:\..\pccsrv\ofcscan.ini for the "CLIENT_LOCALSERVER_PORT" to match the parameters. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 3. | To ensure the connectivity of the workstation clients to the OfficeScan server, you may insert the IPXFER.EXE command line call into a server, a network login script or a batch file: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Example syntax: \\MyServer\ofcscan\ipXfer.exe -m 1 -s MyServer -p 80 -c 12345 -q 1 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Important: The -s switch and its information is necessary to resolve connectivity between OfficeScan server and workstations. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| To avoid losing the server connection, perform the same process on the OfficeScan Web console >Server Administration >Web server >Server info. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| When using the IPXFER tool, the -s setting should match the exact setting in the new server's Ofscan.ini file, including the IP address of the server. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| If these settings do not match, the client workstation may experience conflict that will affect the server. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 4. | Modify the IPXFER script to ensure that it matches the OfficeScan server. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Verify the setting of the OfficeScan server by doing either of the following: |
|
|
| a. | Go to the Server Administrator >Web Server section of the OfficeScan Management Console. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| or |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| b. | Open the Ofscan.ini file in the ..\PCCSRV directory and find the Master_DomainName= parameter. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 5. | Ensure that the following parameters are correct on the server and on the clients: |
|
|
| • | MasterDirectory= |
|
|
| • | Master_DomainName= |
|
|
|
|
|
| 6. | Save a copy of the correct ofcscan.ini file in the following directories: |
|
|
| • | ..\PCCSRV\PCCNT\Disk1 |
|
|
| • | ..\PCCSRV\PCC95\Disk1 |
|
|
|
|
|
| 7. | Update the client machine with the configuration and any available pattern file and/or scan engine updates from the new OfficeScan server. |
|
|
|
|
|
| 8. | Run the \\Officescan_server\ofcscan\AutoPcc.exe file from the new server using either the command line or the login script. |
