Anti Virus Client
« on: February 22, 2008, 05:20:54 PM »
Hi Guys

Please Help.

I have a SME 7.3 Server Running in Server Mode.

I have 25 WindowsXP Pro Workstation Users that Require an Antivirus Solution. Does the SME Server have a solution whereby the Users can get the ClamAV (Or whatever Anti Virus Server Product you Recommend) Updates from the SME Server or must I use another Product that I can Install on the SME Server so that the Users PC's can get Automatic Updates from the SME Server?

Please Help

Moving this topic to the General Discussion forum, it is more appropriate there. Thanks!

Hi,
I have just started doing something similar just for my home setup.
I am using ClamWin perhaps not the very best but nothing here is mission critical  :D

I put the following script in  /etc/cron.daily made it executable (755)

#!/bin/bash

cd /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html
wget -N http://db.local.clamav.net/main.cvd
wget -N http://db.local.clamav.net/daily.cvd

exit 0


Then I pointed WinClam internet updates to point to the server (as far as I know WinClam can only get its updates from a http server not a network share)

I am very new to Linux,  I am just learning to navigate the CLI (Command Line Interface),  I was wondering If you could give me the baby steps on this (the above).  Thank you you for your time.

This part I can handle, I think! :)
