Using a script to automate UNC definition updates for FEP 2010

Hi all,
I tested the script mentioned in this article
http://blogs.technet.com/b/clientsecurity/archive/2010/09/16/using-a-script-to-automate-unc-definition-updates.aspx with no success. I am getting the following error:
Line: 11
Char: 5
Error: The operation timed out
Code: 80072EE2
Source: WinHttp.WinHttpRequest
the script content is as follows:
strMSEx86URL = "http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=121721&clcid=0x409&arch=x86"
strMSEx86Location = "D:\defs\Updates\x86\mpam-fe.exe" 
strNISX86URL = "http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=197095" 
strNISX86Location = "D:\defs\Updates\x86\nis_full.exe" 
strMSEx64URL = "http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=121721&clcid=0x409&arch=x64" 
strMSEx64Location = "D:\defs\Updates\x64\mpam-fe.exe" 
strNISX64URL = "http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=197094" 
strNISX64Location = "D:\defs\Updates\x64\nis_full.exe"
Set objWINHTTP = CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1")  
    objWINHTTP.open "GET", strMSEx86URL, false  
    objWINHTTP.send
If objWINHTTP.Status = 200 Then
Set objADOStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
   objADOStream.Open
  objADOStream.Type = 1 'adTypeBinary
objADOStream.Write objWINHTTP.ResponseBody
objADOStream.Position = 0 'Set the stream position to the Start
Set objFSO = Createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") 
    'check if file exists if so delete 
    If objFSO.Fileexists(strMSEx86Location) Then objFSO.DeleteFile strMSEx86Location
objADOStream.SaveToFile strMSEx86Location 
objADOStream.Close
end if
Anybody can help?

This is the script that I use and it works:

  • SCEP 2012 manual definitions update for use in OSD

    So I am setting up to deploy SCEP 2012 4.5.0216.0 during my OSD task sequence. I am following the guidelines laid out by the blog post: 
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/configmgrteam/archive/2012/04/12/operating-system-deployment-and-endpoint-protection-client-installation.aspx.  I have created a package with the scepinstall.exe, EPAMPolicy.xml, and Install.cmd. 
    Note:  I got the EPAMPolicy.xml from a client I let install SCEP the "normal way" by deploying client settings that said to install and manage the client. 
    I added to the EPAMPolicy.xml file:
    <AddValue Name="DisableUpdateOnStartupWithoutEngine" Disabled="false" Type="REG_DWORD">1</AddValue>
    Added it between:
    <AddValue Name="AuGracePeriod" Type="REG_DWORD" Disabled="false">4320</AddValue>"I ADDED THE CODE RIGHT HERE"<AddValue Name="SignatureUpdateInterval" Type="REG_DWORD" Disabled="false">8</AddValue>
    The "Install.cmd" contains:
    "%~dp0scepinstall.exe" /s /q /NoSigsUpdateAtInitialExp /policy "%~dp0EPAMPolicy.xml"
    So these things together install SCEP 2012 version 4.5.0216.0 and
    cancels any definition updates when done installing and when the service first starts up.  When the install finishes the client is RED since I cancelled all updates.  This is WORKING FINE.
    Now I have a package that contains the definition updates "mpam-fe.exe" and "nis_full.exe" as described in the linked blog.  Running the proper 32/64 version of the mpam-fe.exe effectively updates the client Anti-malware definitions
    to the version I have downloaded for that day.  The client now turns GREEN.  This is WORKING FINE.
    The part that is not working is running the Network Inspection Service definitions, "nis_full.exe".  It goes right through like it was fine when run manually, but when you check event log you see it put two errors in Event
    Log.  It also is causing my Task Sequence to fail.
    I questioned how valid the nis_full.exe was anymore since the blog post is not real new...so I found: 
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935934.  It is titled, "How to manually download the latest antimalware definition updates for Microsoft Forefront Client Security, Microsoft Forefront Endpoint
    Protection 2010 and Microsoft System Center 2012 Endpoint Protection".  I verified by downloading using the links given in that article that my files matched hash for hash. 
    In that article it does say if running SCEP 2012 to also install the nis_full.exe as administrator. 
    This is not working!
    Any assistance is appreciated.  Any better way to deploy SCEP during task sequence and definitions WITHOUT scanning for updates during "Install Software Updates" task or letting client go to
    internet?
    Find this post helpful? Does this post answer your question? Be sure to mark it appropriately to help others find answers to their searches.

    Using the supplied EPAMPolicy2.xml did not resolve the issue. I still get an "0x80004005" error when I try to deploy the "nis_full.exe" during my task sequence. The client and malware definitions work as intended and install successfully. The NIS definitions
    fail though.

  • SCEP definition updates for clients in DMZ

    Hello,
    I do want to enable SCEP definition updates for small group of clients in DMZ (apprx 30 -40)
    I have created a separate  AD OU and SCCM collection for such computers.
    Google shows me different ways like using Definition Update Automation Tool, WSUS, scripts, shares etc, and I am quite confused for which way to adopt.
    can any one suggest me which is the best automated way?
    I do have SCCM 2012 sp1 and all win 8 cleints.
    Thanks in Advance

    You can use whathever method you prefer. All will most likely work. As there's already Configmgr in place I'd use it to do this job. ADRs (automatic deployment rules) can be used to automate this process.

    W8.1 Update for Windows Defender fails over and over... tried cleanup, etc.
    Anyone?  help please if you solved this...
    By the time you read this, a new Definition Update is already available, and this issue should no longer be relevant. However, the simple fix is this: DECLINE the annoying update and wait for the next Definition Update to be published.

  • SCEP 2012 Definition Updates for Linux machines thru SCCM

    We have a situation where SCEP definition needs to be updated on Linux machines which don't have access to internet.
    All I have read is that SCEP functions as stand alone for Linux & Mac machines. Can someone guide thru how do SCEP definitions get updated on Linux machines that are not connected to internet.

  • Definition Update for Windows Defender - KB915597 (Definition 1.169.2328.0) will not install.

    I've been going around in circles for hours now trying to figure this out, but I now officially give up. I have no idea how to fix this. So I came here before I chuck my laptop across the room.
    Whenever I try to install the definition update, it fails and says "error found. Code 80070002 windows update encountered an unknown error". I've tried to fix it using the
    Windows Update troubleshooter, but it can't fix it. Also, tried to follow some manual fixes, but none of what they say to do exists on my computer (like files and such). Help!
    I have a Sony Vaio, Windows  7 64-bit Home Premium edition.
    I also installed the System Update Readiness Tool as a last ditch effort to see if it would fix it. It didn't.
    Thanks for your time.

    Hi,
    I aggree with Hetti.
    In Windows 7, Windows defender only removes spyware, but to protect yourself from viruses, you still need to download antivirus software, such as Avast Antivirus.
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/securitytipstalk/archive/2014/01/16/do-i-need-anything-besides-windows-defender.aspx
    To install the update for Windows Defender, i recommand you to fully exit Avast and manually install the update.

  • My computer uses Windows XP.  The latest Apple Update for iTunes ruined everything.  It won't load the software, and I'm getting flooded with error messages.  Is this latest update a bunch of crap?

    My computers uses WindowsXP.  The latest Apple Software Update put the latest version of iTunes on my computer, and now iTunes doesn't work.  I've tried that instructions on the Apple homepage (delete program, reinstall, etc.), and nothing works.  What's worse is that I'm getting error messages every time I log on to my computer.  Is this latest version a pile of pooh?  Anybody know how to fix this?  Or do I need to wait for Apple to figure out where they screwed up?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    Bought used iphone 4 at xmas all fine until update for ios 6.1 came up and i hit install. Now all i get is flashing logo. know nothing bout tech...im old.lol tried hookin up to computer and it went to dfu mode but then flashing logo happening again. Dont know if phone is jailbroken? has cydia store on it. How can i get reset or get it to work again?? Help!!

    Apple will not touch a jailbroken device.
    You can try restoring as new, but it is not always possible to restore a jailbroken device to a pristine state.
    If possible, return the device to the person or store that it was purchased for refund.

  • In OSX 10.8, can I use the same apple id to get updates for iPhoto and iMovie?

    Hi, so there are several sites that I work at that have multiple OSX 10.8 devices. I was wondering if there was a way that I can use the same apple ID to update iPhoto or iMovie? Apparently its needed for updates now. Alternatively, is there a way that I can do basic updates with out putting in an apple ID? A few dozen is no problem, but there are more than that which need to be updated. And frankly, its becoming a pain.

    You may only do that on machines you own. Other users must have their own Apple IDs and purchase the software for themselves. If these are enterprises, then contact Apple. They have special programs for enterprise purchasing.

    IMPORTANT: If you decide you want to go, you will need to standby in the next few days when the reservation system is opened, since there is limited space and there has already been an expressed interest by many in going.

  • Use Shell Script to create a keyboard shortcut for a installed Service

    I'm not even sure if this is possible, but I hope someone out there has an answer!
    I have an automator Application that I'm using to install a service to my Mac(will be deploying this to hundreds more). Id like to have this Application contain a Shell script that sets up a keyboard shortcut for the service after it is installed.
    Anyone know how to do that?

    You need automator to create services, as detailed in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2241804 a four-parter by Sal Saghoian on *Automation in Snow Leopard*
    This, describes old and new automator—services stuff:
    http://www.reynoldsftw.com/2009/08/automator-and-finder-interactions-in-os-x-10- 6/
    Alternatively, just save the script
    *+tell application "Firefox" to activate+*
    as an app, put it on the Dock, and click it to activate it. However, seems simpler just to put the FF icon on the Dock and a single click launches it. Why would you want a service or AS to do the same thing?
