Hi all again!
nowadays I need to deploy an antivirus solution of some sort... Better if it's an open source one instead of paying for it :-)
Well, my idea is to have a client-server deployment, so you know how it goes: the server takes care of the updates, among other things, and distributes them to the clients which will be in-sync with it. As you can imagine, I'd like a setup like that to save some bandwidth usage as it's "useless" to have n-clients downloading the same antivirus signatures...
I have thought of ClamAV as an initial approach to solve this. Maybe you have a better suggestion, please let me know.
So, if I go finally for ClamAV I'd like to know what the best configuration method would be to achieve such a client-server scenario.
Now, as for the antispam solution... I have DSPAM in mind... anyone here has experienced integrating it with Postfix + Cyrus IMAP + MySQL ? ...or should I go for the "traditional" SpamAssassin? (nothing against it! just asking...)
TIA and best regards, Martin
I can't comment on AV but for our company spam filter I use ASSP: http://assp.sourceforge.net/ It's an SMTP proxy so you can use it with whatever mail server you like (we have Exchange 5.5 I'm sorry to say). Setting up is non-trivial - but then again it's not brain surgery either - but once it's all set up you rarely need to touch it. It seems quite accurate too (one false positive in about 8 months). Plus you get a great snake: http://assp.sourceforge.net/snake.html Cheers, James. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
