Procedure

  2. In the client tree, click the root domain icon (icon_root-30.bmp) or select specific domains or clients.
  3. Click SettingsPrivileges and Other Settings.
  4. Click the Other Settings tab and go to the Client Security Settings section.
  5. Select from the following access permissions:
    • High: The OfficeScan client installation directory inherits the rights of the Program Files folder and the OfficeScan client’s registry entries inherit permissions from the HKLM\Software key. For most Active Directory configurations, this automatically limits “normal” users (those without administrator privileges) to read-only access.
    • Normal: This permission grants all users (the user group "Everyone") full rights to the OfficeScan client program directory and OfficeScan client registry entries.
  6. If you selected domain(s) or client(s) in the client tree, click Save. If you clicked the root domain icon, choose from the following options:
    • Apply to All Clients: Applies settings to all existing clients and to any new client added to an existing/future domain. Future domains are domains not yet created at the time you configured the settings.
    • Apply to Future Domains Only: Applies settings only to clients added to future domains. This option will not apply settings to new clients added to an existing domain.
