10.8.3 and McAfee ePO

[franton]

Anyone else having issues with 10.8.3 and McAfee?

Our 10.8.3 clients now only receive the McAfee cma agent binary but fail to install the Security Suite. We don't have gatekeeper active so I don't think it's a certificate issue.

our 10.8.3 clients are installing and communicating with our ePO ok, but we do not rely on the ePO to push out the software- we install the agent and the GUI at image time. Since the GUI package generated by the ePO installs ok when run by casper imaging, I would bet the problem is with the ePO push rather than the installer itself. I'd contact McAfee support.

We're using the McAfee installer.sh file as per the jamfnation article. It's certainly getting the agent but not much else. My boss is going to be happy tomorrow morning! (He's the only one who knows how to work ePO).

Have you seen this yet (https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB77390)? We also ran into problems installing the McAfee Security but updated our installers and our problem went away.

[nkalister]

the installer.sh file only installs the agent, the GUI is a separate installer.
You are running the pkg for the GUI in addition to the install.sh for the agent, right?
Also, trocque brings up a good point- if you've got the old installer version, then the expired cert could be causing this, too.

We're not using Gatekeeper. Can the certs still be an issue in that event?

It's certainly is an ePO issue as our previously working 10.8.2 now suddenly isn't deploying.

Since i'm not the ePO admin, but I do have access are there any guides/pointers you can show me on how to configure it?

Does disabling the smb share /Software$ make a lot of difference?

I ask because i've just had it re-enabled and i'm able to deploy again. Hrm.
