We have a subscription to Sophos antivirus for our Windows 98 workstations and the SuSE 9.1 Linux server. So far, the workstations do on access protection using intercheck, the server uses amavisd-new to check incoming and outgoing emails for spam and virii, the server downloads new virus definitions twice a day and checks for viruses on the whole filesystem overnight. I came across a link to samba-vscan which appears to run server based on access checking of samba shares, and in fact is already installed on our server (probably alongside Samba when I set it up). Sounds useful, belt and braces etc. To get samba-vscan working with the Sophos library and definitions, it apparently needs to have the sophie daemon running. Sophie isn't a Suse package so I've dowloaded the source, but can't get past the configure script, which says it cant find the savilib library, although the library is, in fact, where sophie configure is looking for it. Anyone else any experience with sophos under linux, or more importantly sophie under suse 9.1? Any suggestions folks? I'm also interested in squid-vscan which does a similar thing with webcontent via the cache. Anyone any experience with this? -- Miles Berry Deputy Head St Ives School Haslemere www.stiveshaslemere.com
