You can use the administrative build and create a custom install. There's an SK article on doing it. Briefly you get the policy on one computer and then copy the files over to the administrative install source, add a line into PRODUCT.INI and away you go.

There's also a nice option in PRODUCT.INI where you can change one line from "acceptall" to "blockinbound". If there's no policy installed for whatever reason, it will block all inbound connections until it gets a policy downloaded.

While this could affect LAN connections until a policy is loaded, it does make it much safer to install it on a client that's directly connected to the Internet. It closes rthat window of opportunity between when the client is rebooted after the install and when it connects and downloads a policy.

HTH,

Hello there,

I have an evaluation license for Check Point NG with
AI (R55). I have installed SecureClient on a remote
machine.
How may I load policy onto the remote client?
My SmartCenter server is connected to the LAN (behind
a FW-1/VPN-1 gateway, and the remote client is
connected to internet).

Many thanks.
