The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

SAV not updating definitions locally

Asked by sjniii in Anti-Virus, Symantec Anti-Virus Software, Server Anti-Virus

Tags: liveupdate

The virus definitions on the server are not updating.

On an Xp named NAVserver, I have installed the Symantec System Center, the primary management server with AV Server Rollout, and configured NAVserver as the primary management server with in a server group called JNAV.

I Installed the LiveUpdate Utility on NAVserver and created a shared network folder on the c: drive of NAVserver called SAVupdates

I then used the LiveUpdate Administration Utility to go out to the Symantec Web Site to download the virus definitions files to SAVupdates.  Currently, the definitions and updates are accessible from our network via UNC at \\NAVserver\SAVupdates

On the primary management server, when I open SAV (via the icon in the system tray), I am prompted to enter the Server Group user and password to run SAV on the computer.
When I click on LiveUpdate, the program runs and then returns the message:

“All of the Symantec Products and Components are currently up to date”

This is not true since the date is still showing June 2005 in SAV.

Any ideas on why I can not get the updates from the local share \\NAVserver\SAVupdates

thanks
Stan
