******Message from InterScan E-Mail VirusWall NT******
I tried the Linux version of this software. When I tried to install it the software gave me a message which said that InterScan VirusWall only works with Red Hat software.
Hum, I'm sorry, but I have to say it's available for SuSE Linux 7.0/7.1, too. :-) At least from the german website of Trend Micro. It has been "ported" to SuSE Linux with the help from our R&D guys. Please note ISVW allows you to add/change filtering rules. So, i.e. I can create a rule which blocks all mails containing "Re: " ;-))
I would use the virus software that comes with SuSE 7.0/7.1 but all of it is in German and I can't understand a word of it. So, I can't get a virus scanner working on my system. Well, we ship H+B EDV AntiVir. You can get an english version from www.hbedv.com. You may have a look at http://www.openantivirus.org/av-unix_e.txt, too. It's a bit outdated - an update is on my to do list. But testing and bug fixing of amavisd (the rewritten version of amavis-perl) has a much higher priority right now. Support for sendmail's libmilter and postfix works quite well, but exim stuff is broken - qmail support is lacking completly *sigh* :-(
So, the chance to get a virus scanner working on you system is really good :-) HTH best regards, Rainer Link -- Rainer Link | SuSE - The Linux Experts link@suse.de | Developer of A Mail Virus Scanner (amavis.org) www.suse.de | Founder OpenAntiVirus Project (www.openantivirus.org)
