Manage trusted directories in an unmanaged environment

Prev Next

You can add directories as trusted directories to run any software present in these directories in an unmanaged environment.

  1. Add one or more specified paths to the directories or volumes as trusted directories or volumes:

    sadmin trusted –i <pathname1...pathnameN>

    sadmin trusted –i C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\Test

    sadmin trusted –i \\192.168.0.1\documents

  2. Provide updater rights to all binaries and scripts in the trusted directories or volumes:

    sadmin trusted –u <pathname1...pathnameN>

    sadmin trusted –u C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\Test

    sadmin trusted –u \\192.168.0.1\documents

    Note

    You can also add a trusted volume by specifying a volume name with this command to include all binaries and scripts present in the specified volume as updaters. Use the sadmin trusted –i -u <volumename> command to specify the volume name.

  3. View the list of trusted directories:

    sadmin trusted –e <pathname1...pathnameN>

    sadmin trusted –e C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\Test

    sadmin trusted –e \\192.168.0.1\documents

  5. Remove trusted directories:

    sadmin trusted –r <pathname1...pathnameN>

    sadmin trusted –r C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop\Test

    sadmin trusted –r \\192.168.0.1\documents
