Possible Mcafee conflict?

VY – Thanks for sharing your experience. No one has ever informed us of this kind of behavior. We have heard of AV products treating psexec.exe as a threat in rare instances, but in the worst case the psexec.exe or psexecsvc.exe is prevented from running. We have never heard of any instances where system files were quarantined by an AV product as a result of running a script with psexec. That sounds extremely bizarre, and your decision to open a ticket with McAfee certainly seems like the best place to start. Please report back here after you have it resolved. Let us know what happened.

Thanks,

Doug

Hi folks,

McAfee has a default policy named “access protection”, it may be your problem. By default this AV block outgoing SMTP, starting script from temp folder, and protect system files.

If something was blocked, it should be displayed in the respective logs file of the application on the server itself, right click the policy give you the possibility to display the file.
