On your Windows 2000 server, you can set user rights to the Internet.
I recommend you download your Virus Defintions to your Server, then write a batch job to update from server and copy that Batch job to all your Client Computers Startup directory. This way when each Client boots they'll get a message to update NAV, and they'll collect updates from your 2000 server.
Make a folder called NAV, download Definitions from server to the NAV directory. Then in your batch job set it to collect definitions from your Server. I cant tell you how to write the batch job cause I need alot more details. I can send you sample batch job if you wish. Let me know, bobbyd@legalwise.co.za

Thanks for the answer but how do i set user rights as non of the computers are being authenticated by that server,and they log on localy on their computer and only use the service of internet conection sharing form the server.
