Not totally true. I know that F-Prot will detect Windows virii on a Linux
machine, but it will also look for Unix/Linux worms and trojans within the
system. You can download it for free (personal use with Linux) and it is
inexpensive on Windows and seems to work. I haven't tried the server side
stuff for Linux or Windows.
