Hi,
Am wanting to silently install Sophos enterprise (not enough licences for central yet).
Also if possible to include the live update settings but no sure how to do this?

Ive packaged the installer within composer but the post install script I'm using is not working :( any help please.

/private/tmp/SophosEnt /Sophos Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/tools/InstallationDeployer --install
(This is how it shows in Terminal when dragging the installation deployer file into it)

Using Console I get this after I try to install it via ARD

    Hi

    We use Sophos and handle the deployment and config with a script, which is run from within our JSS. You can probably adapt it to your needs.
