EP version mismatch causing no EP updates

Recommended Posts

I've been noticing an odd occurrence on my system lately. I have an ADR setup to deploy Forefront Updates, set to install outside of MW and not prompt the user for anything. All has been well. For whatever reason, we now have a version mismatch between the clients and SCCM. The ADR still seems to be pushing updates, even though they don't install, but is also notifying users of updates constantly.


I checked my endpoint log, and see this:


EP 4.2.223.1 is installed, version is higher than expected installer version 4.1.522.0. EndpointProtectionAgent 6/27/2013 7:23:00 AM 7816 (0x1E88)

Endpoint is triggered by message. EndpointProtectionAgent 6/27/2013 10:39:00 AM 6356 (0x18D4)

File C:\Windows\ccmsetup\SCEPInstall.exe version is 4.1.522.0. EndpointProtectionAgent 6/27/2013 10:39:00 AM 6356 (0x18D4)


If I install the EP client off of my distribution point, the version is correct. One of the windows updates pushed out by SCCM is a newer version of the EP client, as I see it in the installed updates. Since it pushed this new version out, I get constant mismatches. There are now constant notifications that updates are available on user machines, and they're always for Forefront, even though my ADR says to hide all notifications.


How should I go about correcting this? I haven't had much luck finding others with the issue yet, and most places I've posted at looking for some insight yield no responses.
