Netware 6.5 antivirus

Also let the forum know exactly how you have AMS configured to work Thanks and best regards, Mick. This change creates consistency in the manner that Symantec AntiVirus reports detections from Auto-Protect and from on-demand scans. Before this change, Symantec AntiVirus reported certain threats as a Risk when the threat was detected during an on-demand scan. Symantec AntiVirus now reports all threats as a Security Risk. These problems do not occur in Symantec AntiVirus Posted Feb 19, PM.

Thanks for the quick replies Mick and Sandip, and my apologies for my slow one, our people are breaking their computers slightly faster than I can fix them. We are using Netware 6. We have about 65 computers, a private non-profit foster care agency. I had configured alerts for Virus Found, not the others. The TEST button successfully sent messages. According to the System Console on my primary one of 2 control computers, about half of the clients have had Risks since I got the system up and limping last June.

I don't know if that is a symptom of other problems or normal that 2 computers reading the same server show different STATUS. At least the secondary computer let me configure the alerts. I'll see what happens over the next week with the new types of alerts set. Mick, do you think it would be worth my time to try to change to the Thank you very much for your help, Bob.

It can be downloaded for free from eicar. Ideally all servers should move to MR9 to avoid that: I recommend putting it on your "to-do" list. With the past experience under your belt, hopefully the MR9 upgrade won't require much time or headaches.

Reliable and efficient malware protection Centralized deployment and management Easy administration and policy enforcement of all servers Cross-platform protection for the heterogeneous network to deliver true, enterprise-class support Virus containment capabilities to prevent spreading of malware. ServerProtect scans and detects malware in real time and incorporates cleanup capabilities to help remove malicious code and repair system damage.

Administrators can use one management console to centrally enforce, administer, and update malware protection on every server throughout an organisation. This robust solution enables enterprises to secure the entire server file system including compressed archives, distribute virus patterns to remove any viruses that get through, and help automate the damage cleanup process to resolve problems left by virus infections.

As a result, the cost and efforts associated with a virus infection can be significantly reduced. ServerProtect can be configured to download virus pattern files and scan engine updates automatically and then distribute them to designated servers. It uses an incremental update mechanism so that the designated servers only download the new virus pattern files that have been added since the last version, saving download time and preserving network bandwidth.
