How to check whether automatic updates was disabled or enabled during installation on Linux Security 64?

Issue:

How to check whether automatic updates was disabled or enabled during installation of Linux Security 64?

Resolution:

To check if automatic updates have been disabled for a Linux Security 64 installation, you need to check if the ipf.json file located in /var/opt/f-secure/fsbg/fsma2/ includes the following line:

  • "download_updates": "none"

If the line exists, then automatic updates have been disabled. If the line doesn't exist, then automatic updates are enabed. 

If Linux Security 64 has been installed using the argument  –automatic-updates=none, to revert the setting you need reinstall Linux Security 64, since the setting cannot be changed after installation.
