Recently i was having some explore on NAVC, so try to share with others. Basiclly i will have a server which act as antivirus server, it will update the virus definition from symantec web site then it will auto push it to all the client, so its good for administrator to control all the client virus definition is up-to-date, but when you have different version of client, you will have some problem.
for windows XP Pro, its perfectly ok, it can search the antivirus server ( which is win2k server ), for windows XP Home, there is some wierd example which cannot find the server, so far 4 win xp home in my office, there is one cannot find the server, for win 98 client, it will be even worse all the win 98 cannot find the server ( btw win 98 need to dl the Root Certificate patch first b4 it can install this version NAVC ).
Solution is , install the NAVC as unmanage first ( manage mean update by server, unmanage mean need manual update suitable for those laptop user), after that search the antivirus server in the network, it should have a share folder call vhome, copy the file call Grc.dat and paste it on your client site.
for win98 just paste on c:program filessymantec antivirus
for winxp just paste on C:Documents and Settings>
restart your computer and it done ! #Grc.dat contain all the information about the server
