2 Integrating with epolicy Orchestrator Configure McAfee VirusScan Enterprise for Linux using McAfee epolicy Orchestrator management software. To use this chapter effectively, you need to be familiar with epolicy Orchestrator 4.5, 4.6 or 5.0 software. McAfee epolicy Orchestrator provides a scalable platform for centralized policy management and enforcement on your McAfee security products and systems on which they reside. It also provides comprehensive reporting and product deployment capabilities; all through a single point of control. This guide does not provide detailed information about installing or using epolicy Orchestrator software. See the McAfee epolicy Orchestrator Product Documentation. Contents Prerequisites Installing McAfee VirusScan Enterprise for Linux using epolicy Orchestrator Upgrading your client systems using epolicy Orchestrator Sending an agent wake-up call Setting policies within epolicy Orchestrator Scheduling tasks Configuring reports Uninstallation Prerequisites Before deploying McAfee VirusScan Enterprise for Linux on Novel Open Enterprise Server 2.x: 1 From the Novell edirectory server, use imanager and create a user called "nails" and a group called "nailsgroup". 2 Add the user "nails" a member of the "nailsgroup". Enable the user and group using the Linux User Management. 3 Provide "nails" user with administrative privileges on all the NSS volumes. For example: rights f /media/nss/<vol name> r s trustee nails.<context>.<tree> You need to provide administrative privileges to the "nails" user, every time a new NSS volume is created.
