[Casper] Sophos AV install question

[Paul Benham]

Hi,

I am in the process of building packages to use with our brand  
spanking new Casper Suite. I have run into a couple of problems but  
I'm going to post them one at a time and try and get some feedback on  
them individually.
We use Sophos AV and I have tried using Composer 7 to make both a dmg  
and a pkg to use with Casper, but have not been able to get a working  
copy of Sophos out of it. There are two problems, firstly after being  
installed (either via policy or Casper Remote) the Sophos Updater pops  
up with an error saying is can't be started (this sometimes takes a  
couple of minutes to appear after the install). Secondly the Sophos  
menu item does not appear (this is a check box in the Sophos  
Preference Pane).
I then tried using the vanilla mpkg that Sophos arrives as, but when I  
try and install that via Casper Remote it fails, and I get this  
message in the jamf logs:

Fri Feb 27 12:37:57 A7388 jamf[1544]: 	Installing Sophos Anti- 
Virus.mpkg...
Fri Feb 27 12:37:58 A7388 jamf[1544]: 	Installation failed. The  
installer reported: installer: Error the package path specified was  
invalid: '/Library/Application Support/JAMF/Downloads/Sophos Anti- 
Virus.mpkg'.


Finally I went ahead and installed it using Apple ARD, and it worked  
fine.

so...any suggestions on how to get Casper to install Sophos AV  
successfully?

thanks

paul
