Setting up the Alert Management System
Forwarding alerts from unmanaged clients
To forward alerts to an AMS server
1
Use a text editor such as Notepad to create a new text file.
2
Add the following lines:
3
In the <AMSServerName> line, do one of the following:
Type the IP or IPX address for the intended AMS
2
server.
Type the name of the intended AMS
2
server (make sure that the client
can resolve the server name).
Be sure to include the S preceding <SERVERNAME>. Do not include the
brackets.
4
Save the file as Grc.dat to one of the following folders on the client:
For Windows 98\Me: C:\Program Files\Symantec AntiVirus
For Windows NT: C:\Winnt\Profiles\All Users\Application
Data\Symantec\Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition\7.5
For Windows 2000\XP\2003: C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Application Data\Symantec\Symantec AntiVirus
Once you have created the configurations file (Grc.dat), you can copy it to other
unmanaged clients. These unmanaged clients will then forward alerts to the
same AMS
2
server.
