Forefront Client Security
Hi there,
It seems Microsoft Told in a blog post that FCS is supported in Win2008R2 and win7, which is not true.
I've tried to install on my server and got errors with Microsoft Operation Manager 2005, which raised a wird error.... dont no why, or what it is because the log page presents an html table with empty values.
1st error was in the assesment, telling that i need more space on disc, which i have 250gb free for that.
2nd error was what i told.... MOMServer error code is about prerequesites, but dont know which one i fail, cause theres nothing there....
So is there anyone knowing how to work around this?

Hi Marco,
Thank you for your post.
According to your description, I think you may misunderstand the statement on Microsoft Forefront blog: “Forefront Client Security (FCS) v1.0 is fully supported on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 as of August 31, 2009”.
That means we can install Client Security client components on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, not for server components. So you will encounter the error when deploying server components on the server like 2008 R2. It is not supported.
