EM Library Release Notes ------------------------ Version 1.2.0 February 2005 www.sophos.com Contents -------- 1 About EM Library 1.2 2 New features 3 Upgrading from earlier versions 4 Known issues 5 System requirements 6 Technical support 1 About EM Library 1.2 ---------------------- EM Library is used to download and update Sophos Anti-Virus automatically. It allows for deployment across a wide area network with multiple updating locations. 2 New features -------------- * When you upgrade from EM Library 1.1, your settings are preserved and will be used in the new version. * Enterprise Console can be launched from the EM Library console, providing closer integration. * A single installation procedure installs both Enterprise Console and EM Library. * EM Library supplies Enterprise Console with details of the locations of your CIDs (central installation directories from which Sophos Anti-Virus is installed on networked computers). This means that you can see the UNC or HTTP locations of the CIDs when you set the updating policy in Enterprise Console. 3 Upgrading from earlier versions ---------------------------------- Please see www.sophos.com/products/es/upgrade/ 4 Known issues --------------- * If you install the management server (EM Library plus Enterprise Console) on a Windows 2000 server, it will sometimes need to be restarted afterwards. * During installation, a "Network account configuration wizard" offers to create a local "EMLibUser" account automatically. If you are installing EM Library on a domain server, you cannot use this option. You must create an EM Library user account on Active Directory, and then select that user account in the account configuration wizard. 5 System requirements ---------------------- 5.1 EM Library and Enterprise Console system requirements * Windows NT 4 (Service Pack 6a), Windows 2000, Windows XP Professional or Windows 2003 * Microsoft Management Console (MMC) version 1.2 or higher * Internet Explorer 5 or higher. 300MB disk space for the management software (EM Library plus Enterprise Console) plus up to 2GB for the management database 256MB RAM File and print sharing must be enabled on the computer where the EM Library services are running (usually the computer where you install EM Library).
