Note
Installing the client components from the Admin Console requires Windows networking and
access to the admin share (c$).
To install and update client workstations from the Admin Console:
1. From the Admin Console function tree, select Admin Tasks > Client Deployment.
• The Client Deployment panel displays, with a list of the domains or workgroups that
exist on your network..
2. Select the domain or workgroup whose workstations you want to see.
• To see fewer client workstations in the list, use the filter options. For more
information, see “Filtering Information” on page 37.
3. Select the client workstations where you want to install the client components.
• You can select more than one workstation by using Ctrl or Shift as you select
workstations.
• If you are updating an existing installation, you do not need to uninstall the client
components first.
4. Click Deploy Client.
• If you do not have access to the admin share (c$) of a workstation, the workstation
asks for a user name and password that has admin share access.
5. Click Refresh or go to the Client Management panel to see the status of the installation.
• If you need to uninstall the client components, select the workstation and click
Uninstall Client.
Alternate Client Workstation Setup Methods
You can also install these components using any of the following methods:
• Going to each individual workstation and executing one of the following:
– Execute the SpySweeperSetup.msi file.
• Make sure that all seven of the client installation files (instmsi.exe, instmsiw.exe,
SpySweeperSetup.exe, SpySweeperSetup.ini, SpySweeperSetup.msi,
SseCleanup.exe, and SSEStart.exe) are in the same folder whenever
SpySweeperSetup.msi executes. Typically, these files are in the C:\Program
Files\Webroot\Enterprise\Server\Client folder of the system where you installed
Webroot Enterprise Server.
• The SpySweeperSetup.ini file contains the IP address and port of your company
server and is needed for the client to install successfully.
– For unpatched Windows 98, 98SE, ME, or NT execute the SpySweeper.exe file.
• This file installs Windows Installer 2.0, which is required for the client
workstation installation, then installs the client components.
• Make sure that all seven of the client installation files (instmsi.exe, instmsiw.exe,
SpySweeperSetup.exe, SpySweeperSetup.ini, SpySweeperSetup.msi,
