Hello everybody,
thanks for your valuable feedback during the beta/RC phase of the first release of Business Protection.
Today we are making public the final release, available at
http://www.avast.com/businessRelease notes for the avast! Administration ConsoleInstallation * The installation usually takes 15-30 minutes. It may appear to stop for a while in one phase - this is because during the installation, the files necessary for the local "update server" components are also downloaded. These files make up about 200MB, so it will take a while for everything to download and process. Please be patient.
* Re-using an existing database
o If the Administration Console is reinstalled and a previous database is re-used, the group passwords are reset to a blank password. It is therefore necessary to change the password on the server.
o Database settings entered during the installation are ignored if a previous database is re-used. The Administration Console instead uses the previous DB settings.
* During installation, you may get the error "Could not access VBScript" - VBScript runtime still has to be registered.
Repeated installations and upgrades from a previous beta and RCPlease do a complete uninstall before installing the newer version of the Administration Console.
Unattended deployment * Does not work in windows workgroups, works only in ActiveDirectory domains.
o Make sure all computers on which the avast! client is to be installed belong to the administrators group.
o In addition, all users need the right to "Log on as service".
* Client deployment freezes at 70% and reboots
o Sometimes the installation of the avast! client completes sucessfully on the client computer but the status of the job is not correctly updated in the administration console.
User Interface * Some localized texts don't fit properly in the space available
* Korean and Japanese characters are not displayed correctly in the installer if the required fonts are not installed on the computer.
* The descriptions below the graphs and tables in the different language versions of the report file are in English.
* All known issues with the installation on various platforms and OS language versions with various regional settings have been fixed. However, if you run into trouble, please create a forum post specifying what language/regional settings of OS you are using and we'll look into it.
Hopy you enjoy this
Cheers
