INSTALLER CHANGE

In this release of the Common Management Agent, the
reference-counting mechanism has changed.  As a
result, the following command line is now a valid
way to upgrade your Common Framework installation:

       FramePkg /Install=Updater


INSTALLING THIS RELEASE

This section contains the following information for
ePolicy Orchestrator 3.0.x users:

-   Checking The Agent Package Into The Master
    Repository, and Creating The New Agent
    Installation Package

-   Replicating Agent Package To Distributed
    Repositories



1. CHECKING THE AGENT PACKAGE INTO THE MASTER
REPOSITORY AND CREATING THE NEW AGENT INSTALLATION
PACKAGE

   NOTE
   You cannot check in packages while pull or
   replication tasks are executing.

   1.  Log on to the desired ePolicy Orchestrator
       server using a global administrator user
       account.

   2.  In the console tree under "ePolicy
       Orchestrator" | <SERVER>, select
       "Repository."

   3.  In the details pane under "AutoUpdate Tasks,"
       click "Check in package." The "Check in
       package" wizard appears.

   4.  Click "Next" to open the package type dialog
       box.

   5.  Select "Products or updates," then click
       "Next." The catalog file dialog box appears.

   6.  Select the package catalog (PKGCATALOG.Z)
       file from the temporary folder where you
       downloaded it. You can type the path to this
       file, or click "Browse" to select it, then
       click "Next." The summary dialog box
       appears.

   7.  Click "Finish" to check in the package.

   8.  Click "Close" after the package has been
       checked in.

   9.  Stop the "McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator 3.0
       Server" service. This procedure varies
       depending on the operating system. For
       instructions, see the operating system
       product documentation.

   10. Delete the FRAMEPKG.EXE and FRAMEWORK.Z files
       from this location in the installation
       directory:

       [installation directory]\DB\SOFTWARE\CURRENT\EPOAGENT3000\INSTALL\0409

       The default location of the installation
       directory is:

       C:\PROGRAM FILES\NETWORK ASSOCIATES\EPO\3

       If you upgraded the software from version
       2.0, 2.5, or 4.5.1, the default location is:

       C:\PROGRAM FILES\MCAFEE\EPO\2.0

   11. Restart the "McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator 3.0
       Server" service.


2. REPLICATING AGENT PACKAGE TO DISTRIBUTED
REPOSITORIES

   Note: Since local distributed repositories can be
   accessed only from client computers, replication
   tasks do not copy packages from the master
   repository to local distributed repositories; you
   must manually update local distributed
   repositories with the desired packages.

1.  Log on to the desired ePolicy Orchestrator
    server using a global administrator user
    account.

2.  In the console tree under "ePolicy Orchestrator"
    | <SERVER>, select "Repository."

3.  In the details pane under "AutoUpdate Tasks,"
    click "Replicate now." The "Replicate Now"
    wizard appears.

4.  Click "Next" to open the distributed
    repositories dialog box.

5.  Click "Select All" to select all global and
    SuperAgent distributed repositories, then click
    "Next." The replication type dialog box
    appears.

6.  Select "Incremental replication," then click
    "Finish" to run the task.

7.  Click "Close" after the task has completed.



UNINSTALLING THIS RELEASE

To uninstall this release, run the following command
at the prompt:

       FramePkg.exe /Remove=Agent

   NOTE:
   For silent mode installation, you can use the
   /Silent switch.


_____________________________________________________
KNOWN ISSUES


1.  Selective updating is available to only ePolicy
    Orchestrator 3.5 users. If you use ePolicy
    Orchestrator 3.0 or 3.1, you cannot use
    selective updating, even if you have checked in
    the Common Management Agent version 3.5.

2.  When installing the agent from a command line,
    the macro named <SOFTWARE_INSTALLED_DIR>, which
    is supposed to expand into the correct
    installation directory path, does not work. Do
    not use this macro parameter when installing the
    agent.

3.  On some systems running Windows XP Service Pack
    2, the Common Management Agent may not update
    correctly. To fix this issue, add the Framework
    Service to the Exceptions List of the Microsoft
    Windows firewall. To do so:

   a.  Log into the computer as an administrator.
   b.  Open My Network Places | Properties.
   c.  Click "Change Windows Firewall Settings."
   d.  Select the "Exceptions" tab.
   e.  Click the "Add Program" button, and browse to
       select the "Framework Services" program.
       Click "OK."
   f.  Make sure "Framework Services" is selected in
       the list of programs on the Exceptions tab.
   g.  Click "OK" to save your changes. (202875)

4.  The Common Management Agent fails to initialize
    on computers with a Pentium 90 processor or
    earlier. This is due to a timeout in the Windows
    Service Manager. A Pentium 133Mhz or later is
    required. (201872)

5.  Custom agent installation packages
    (FRAMEPKG.EXE) with embedded user credentials
    might not install successfully on computers
    using these operating systems:

   -   Windows 2000 Advanced Server with Service
       Pack 4 or later.
   -   Windows 2000 Server with Service Pack 4 or
       later.
   -   Windows Server 2003 Enterprise.
   -   Windows Server 2003 Standard.
   -   Windows XP Service Pack 2.

   The workaround is:

   On computers using the operating systems listed
   above, make the following changes to the security
   settings before installing custom agent
   installation packages on them:

   a.  Log on to the desired computer using a user
       account with local administrator
       permissions.
   b.  Run SECPOL.MSC to open the "Local Security
       Settings" dialog box.
   c.  In the console tree under "Security Settings"
       | "Local Policies," select "User Rights
       Assignment."
   d.  In the details pane, double-click
       "Impersonate a client after authentication"
       in the "Policy" column to open the "Local
       Security Policy Setting" dialog box.
   e.  Click "Add" to open the "Select Users or
       Groups" dialog box.
   f.  Select the user or group that the end user is
       likely to run as; for example, "Everyone" or
       "Users," then click "Add."
   g.  Click "OK" twice to save the current
       entries.
   h.  On Windows 2000 computers, you need to
       restart the computer before the changes
       become effective.

   (impersonating a client after authentication) and
   instructions for troubleshooting it were
