Guest Patrick D. Posted October 29, 2007 Posted October 29, 2007 Hi, I couldn't find a newsgroup named "ForeFront". I want to implement ForeFront in a very little Domain. Since I am new to ForeFront I wonder, that during the hardware-test at the beginning of the installation I am asked to mount rather "heavy" hardware, to roll out ForeFront. How do I roll out ForeFront in a very small business? Is there a whitepaper or an url for such a scenario? Thanks for your hint. regards Patrick

As Jabez mentioned: microsoft.public.security.forefront is a good place for Questions on Forefront. >> I want to implement ForeFront in a very little Domain. >> Since I am new to ForeFront I wonder, that during the hardware-test at >> the >> beginning of the installation I am asked to mount rather "heavy" >> hardware, to roll out ForeFront. I guess, you are talking about FCS (Forefront Client Security), aren't you? >> How do I roll out ForeFront in a very small business? >> Is there a whitepaper or an url for such a scenario? What is "very little"? <20? If yes, why FCS and not OneCare etc.? I'd say, just size your servers in a reasonalbe way and go ahead. You do not need to have a quad core with 10GB Ram for a small network. I'm not aware of a specific white paper for that size. P.S: F'up2 microsoft.public.security.forefront HTH Regards, Dieter -- Dieter Rauscher MVP ISA Server Website: http://www.msisafaq.de Blog: http://msmvps.com/rauscher/ Buch: http://www.msisafaq.de/buch/

Guest Bill Walter Posted October 31, 2007 Posted October 31, 2007 Re: ForeFront for little Domain I think one option is to get the "Unmanaged Client Licenses" and just manually install the real-time and scan Forefront Client on each workstation and setup Automatic Updates to get the updates from Microsoft update. That ends up costing just a few dollars per year per computer and does not require any server resources. This is like installing OneCare without the backup and tune-up options.
