Jul 01, 2008System Warning Customization
Does anyone know how you can modify the system warnings? We are restricting network access by using a protected configuration that uses the AV check to make sure it is running and then a custom check to use session variables to make sure the Virus Database is no more than 7 days old. The problem is that when someone fails the Custom check, their System warning states:
• Custom check does not satisfy criteria
That isn't particularly user friendly and I would prefer to let the user know their database is out of date. I haven't found a way to modify the system warnings, but does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Justinian

I think what you are looking for is under Users->Groups->Master Group->User Experience. set the "System Warning" to "Don't Use" - Mike_Maher

Fuzz has got the place to disable the system warning which is triggered by the protected configuration failure, but if you looking to modify the message that appears when you fail the AV check, you have to do that in the Pre-Logon sequence. User > Endpoint Security > Pre-logon sequence. Then find the flow that has the AV check in it and there are boxes that says Access Denied and click on the link for that and you can modify the message to say whatever you want. Hope that help - Justinian_48178

Thank you everyone for your quick responses. Unfortunately, neither option really does what I need it to. The system warning is from a protect configuration that uses session variables. Changing the pre-login message doesn't affect the system warning. - Justinian_48178

I was having the same problem with this. What I ended up doing was adding steps to the pre-login sequence to check all the variables I checked in the protected configuration and fire off e-mails, write to the logon log and/or post a message to the screen depending on if something was out of spec. The other thing you can do is turn on system variable logging under "Device Management->Management->Troubleshooting Tools" check the box that says Save user's session variables to Logon Reports. This way you can find the particular user that is failing and search their logon log for failures. Hope that gives you some ideas. - VictorS_96310

My organization's approach is to put custom error codes in the pre-logon inspection at points where logon fails. To be clear, the user doesn't even get to a logon page if they don't meet policy; we do not use protected configurations to accomplish policy-based access since the person should not even be logging on if their computer is out of compliance.
