Hello
How come (in the autodiscover window) that the console is unable to register the installed version of FSMA?
As seen on the below screenshot, all are registered as unknown or unknown, unavailable. This has been the case for as long as I can remember (We have used F-secure for several years). I would be nice to know if the clients are updated or dont have anything installed!
Another issue that has been bugging me is that the console is unable to bypass the firewall on the F-secure klient version, so you cannot roll out updates without disabling the firewall first. I take it there is a way to setup access between the management server and the client in the firewall settings? Anyone know what I should add to make it work without disabling the firewall?
Thanks in advance
Hi there. This may be old, but I still want to know if this problem has been fixed or any feature has been added to resolve this? Thanks.
To resolve the Version PMC would need access to the remote registry which is blocked by either Windows Firewall or F-Secure Firewall.

Well neither are running. So that's not the answer
Im guessing I have to enable remote access to some registry settings (?) - but which?
I tried enabling remote access to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Data Fellows\F-Secure\Management Agent
Which has a version number and other info, but client fsma version is still being listed as unknown.
I guess that is because it is searching the old 32-bit entries...

I take it there is no solution to this problem?
Thanks for your lengthy reply, but we stalled at the inability of the "autodiscover windows hosts" window to display the installed fsma version (unable to connect to registry problem).
I have tried to grant access to lots of f-secure registry settings with a gpo, but still the manager can't access that information.
I am able to deploy f-secure from that window, although new clients aren't showing up in the console (even when they are forced to generate a unique ID), but that's for another topic, I guess. It's been a while since I dug deep into the f-secure issues, but there seems to be so many issues, once you get going.. it's hard to recommend the product, but we are getting it cheap as a school license, so I guess we will just have to live with these annoying bugs.
I was getting this on Windows 7 PCs that I had pushed the installation too.
I started the "Remote Registry" service from the PCs' Windows Services Management Console and the Auto-discover then worked as expected.
If you change the services startup type to "automatic" then it should start up when the PC does.
I was thinking of doing this through group policy but that may open up more security holes than it may be worth?
