Hi Roman, TrendMicro just released a version for SuSE 6.4 , I haven't had the chance to check yet, but as I talked to TM, they stated, there arent't any know probs. I do not know if they released it on their international server - try www.trendmicro.de. The software was ported here in Munich, Germany AFAIK.

Hi.

I'm having trouble looking for a SuSE-working antivirus solution. I need to set up an av solution on my smtp server (i.e. filtering inbound or outbound mail). I only have had time to try 2 AV by now: AVP for Linux and Trend Micro InterScan. Both failed to install/work: AVP gives "segmentation faults" (I think it is compiled against glibc2; I'm using SuSE 6.4 distro which comes with... glibc perhaps? Aren't they compatible?). InterScan directly refuse to install (it says it must be compiled on Red Hat 6.0; perhaps it could be faked because it checks for /etc/redhat-release file but I don't want to make these kind of "experiments"). They aren't opensource so I haven't got the sources for re-compiling.

In summary, both are intended for Red Hat, which seems to be the more popular distro (indeed, it was, at least long time ago, and perhaps it is now).

Isn't there a good AV soft which correctly compiles in SuSE 6.4??? I prefer hearing some fast responses from you than keeping wasting my time downloading &"try-installing" other non-SuSE AVs...

Thx in advance.

Shouldn't generally be a problem (I kept installing RedHat rpm packages on SuSE-6.4 systems like a king for a while...).

Good luck, the maintainer of amavis works for SuSE: Rainer Link (Hi Rainer! :-). http://www.amavis.org/

Thx in advance.
