This article concerns:

• Kaspersky Endpoint Security 11.2.0 for Linux (version 11.2.0.4528)
• Kaspersky Endpoint Security 11.1.0 for Linux (version 11.1.0.3013)
• Kaspersky Endpoint Security 11.0.0 for Linux (version 11.0.0.2706)

1. Download the archive containing the utility — Kaspersky Update Utility.
2. Create a standard user.
3. Create a directory for the utility (e.g. /mnt/ftp/upload/uu) and unpack the downloaded archive into the folder. Modify the directory rights.

mkdir –p /mnt/ftp/upload/uu/Updates && chown -R test /mnt/ftp/upload/uu && chmod -w -R /mnt/ftp/upload/uu/Bases

4. Open the /mnt/ftp/upload/uu/Bases/updater.xml file as root user. 
5. Find the KasperskyEndpointSecurityForLinux_10_SP1 section, rename it and modify its contents:

<name>KasperskyEndpointSecurityForLinux_11</name>
<version>11.0.0.2706</version>
<component>APD,APU,BLST2,CDB2,EMU,KDB,KSLS11,KSN,OSSL,QSCAN,SCO,SUPD,SW2,UDS,UMIDS,UPDATER,WA,WMUF,RETR1901,RETR1901_APD,RETR1901_APU,RETR1901_BLST2,RETR1901_CDB2,RETR1901_EMU,RETR1901_KDB,RETR1901_KSLS11,RETR1901_KSN,RETR1901_OSSL,RETR1901_QSCAN,RETR1901_SCO,RETR1901_SUPD,RETR1901_SW2,RETR1901_UDS,RETR1901_UMIDS,RETR1901_UPDATER,RETR1901_WA,RETR1901_WMUF</component>
<tree>index/u1313g.xml</tree>
<App>KSLS11.0.0.2706</App>
<Arch>i386;x64</Arch>
<SysArch>i386;x64</SysArch>

6. Open the mnt/ftp/upload/uu/updater.ini file. 
7. Add the new component and modify its configuration:

[ComponentSettings]
KasperskyEndpointSecurityForLinux_11=true
[DirectoriesSettings]
ClearTempFolder=true
MoveToCurrentFolder=false
MoveToCustomFolder=true
TempFolder=/tmp
UpdatesFolder=/mnt/ftp/upload/uu/Updates

8. Run the utility as standard user:

/mnt/ftp/upload/uu/uu-console.sh -u

You should only run the utility as standard user. Running the utility as root user will reset the changes.

The contents downloaded by the utility will be placed in the /mnt/ftp/upload/uu/Updates folder. You can use the folder to run updates or perform uploads to an HTTP or FTP server.
