Using SCCM Dashboard to display Forefront Endpoint Protection info
I got an idea to use the SCCM Dashboard to present the status from the Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 . The FEP Dashboard in the SCCM console is based on Collection membership so I opened SQL Management Studio to get the SQL queries for the Collection Membership and use them i the SCCM Dashboard.

Installing Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 – Pending Restart
I have installed Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 a couple of times now and I must say that the system requirements document on Technet has a complete list of pre-req’s, read it before starting the installation. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff823830.aspx The installation it self is really straightforward if all the system requirements are fulfilled. However almost every installation of either the server…
