How can I setup a login script for users on my domain in order to update the McAfee antivirus software? I've tried unsuccessfully to utilize the "Kixtart" software that's free but nothing seems to work. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you.

I use Kixtart to update our virus checker and to install SMS remote agents - and it works fine.

Does anyone have a sample of the login script that can actually use Kixtart to update McAfee Antivirus Scan remotely? I'm having no luck using the Kixtart. Please help!

I've done it this way: if you already have a script, ex to map net folders, just add at the end these lines:
c:\ cd \ cd Program Files cd Common Files cd Network Associates cd McUpdate mcupdate.exe /task upgrade mcupdate.exe /task update
It works on the update (you have to set a destination for looking in from the AVConsole..), not for the upgrade (still working on) This way you could save time then working from server applications
