Hello,
I have attempted today to push Symantec Endpoint Protection v12.1.6608.6300 (12.1 RU6 MP3) to a Windows 10 Enterprise client. This is the first attempt to push SEP of any version to any Windows 10 client. We have used the same general procedure for years to successfully push to Windows 7 Enterprise clients.
The first hurdle was getting the Deployment Wizard remote authentication to succeed. After manually starting the RemoteRegistry service on the target client, the authentication step finally succeeded.
The next step, where the install package is sent to the client, begins promisingly, but several seconds after clicking ‘Send’ the process fails with a red X in the Deployment Status box. The SEPM Deployment Report offers no further information. The client event log does not appear to have any record of the install failure.
Open ports on the Windows 10 client are as follows;
135/TCP
139/TCP
445/TCP
3389/TCP
The Win 10 client is a clean installation from Win 10 Enterprise media. No other third party software has yet been installed.
Are there some further special steps required for a successful push to Win 10 Enterprise clients?
Thank You,
Dale
