Section 4: Configuring a default policy

ESET Remote Administrator allows you to customize the way ESET NOD32 Antivirus

protects your client computers. To do this, you'll need to create a default policy that

is pushed out to your clients along with the install of your ESET security software.

From ESET Remote Administrator, click Tools → Policy Manager.

You'll see a server icon labeled Server Policy (your server's name). Click it and then

click Edit... on the far right of the Policy Manager window (Figure 3-1, at right). In the

example, the server is named Testserver.

This will launch the ESET Conﬁ guration Editor – the tool you will use to customize

your clients' ESET NOD32 Antivirus settings.

For the purposes of this Basic Setup Guide, we're going to set up a Default

Workstation policy — a set of simple conﬁ gurations that will work on most basic

networks – with no hassle for you. If you have highly speciﬁ c network settings or

proprietary software that may need special permissions, check the ERA Manual for

detailed information on building your own custom policy.

4.1 Protect setup parameters

First, we want to make sure your clients' ESET software is not

changeable by anyone but you or other qualiﬁ ed users. Near the top of

the Conﬁ guration Editor tree, click ESET Smart Security, ESET NOD32

Antivirus → ESET Kernel → Setup → Protect setup parameters.

When Protect setup parameters is highlighted, click Mark on the right.

Next, double-click Password to unlock: <Password is not set>. You will

be prompted to choose a password that will be used to allow modiﬁ cation

of your ESET security settings on each of the workstations. We recommend

picking a password diff erent from the one from Step 2.1 because you may

wish to share one but not the other. Once your password is set, anyone

wishing to alter ESET settings on the client(s) will be prompted for it.

NOTE: This only aff ects changes made from the workstations themselves.

You can still alter settings remotely from the ERA Console without

password authentication.

4.2 Disable splash-screen and nonessential notifications

Now, we want to ensure that your client computers aren't being notiﬁ ed

about activities ESET NOD32 Antivirus performs in the background. A little

farther down the Conﬁ guration Editor tree, click ESET Smart Security,

ESET NOD32 Antivirus → ESET Kernel →Setup → Default user interface

values. Highlight Suppress user settings and then select the Value: Yes

/ No checkbox. This will ensure that your settings override any custom

settings a user might choose. Next, highlight Show splash-screen at

startup and on the right, deselect the Value: Yes / No checkbox. Then,

highlight Display only notiﬁ cations requiring user intervention and on

the right, select the Value: Yes / No checkbox. Your users' computers will

not be disrupted by unnecessary messages from their antivirus software.

4.3 Configure clients to update from the Mirror

Next, scroll down the Conﬁ guration Editor tree and click Update module →

Proﬁ le (My proﬁ le) → Setup → Update server: <Choose automatically>.

Here, we want to conﬁ gure your clients to update from the Mirror we set

up in step 3.1. With Update server: highlighted, click Mark and then on the

right, select <Custom update server> from the Value: drop-down menu.

In the Value: ﬁ eld, now enter the http address of your Mirror. This will look

something like

http://Testserver: 2221

(Where "Testserver" is your server computer and port 2221 is the default port. Be sure

there are no spaces between the server name, the colon [":"] and the port number.)

Click the Save diskette icon to the save the conﬁ guration and then click Console to

exit the Conﬁ guration Editor.
