Actually,
I was talking about the NAV client piece, not NAV for Exchange
server.
And I was
on the fence about it. That's why
I posted here trying to get feedback.
There have been some very good points to use AV filtering on Exchange
and I am going to suggest that to my management that it is worth the
money. I do appreciate everyone's
responses.
The next
question - Has anyone been able to compare SAVF and Antigen? Yes, lots of people compare NAVfE with
Antigen and love Sybari's product much
more.
However,
SAVF appears to be a lot better.
Has anyone played with it?

You
are confusing. Then why did you state this "This seems to
make AV on the server itself not necessary."
If you agree with
us?

If the
target is IIS, then NAV running LiveUpdate on the server can handle
that.

What
if the target of the virus is not a desktop? What if the target is IIS? How
will a desktop handle that. You need AV on the servers. It does not degrade
functionality or stability so much as to let that slide.

This is not being helpful. It is a
serious question. Any viruses that actually get through Trend on the
firewall will most likely get cleaned by NAV on the desktop. This seems
to make AV on the server itself not necessary.

Do you have anything more to add to back up your

Our environment has Trend running on the
firewall for anti-virus and content filtering. We have NAV running on
the desktops. We are currently evaluating Antigen and SAVF (Symantec) to
put on our E2K Exchange servers (including an E2K cluster on a Compaq
SAN). However, our Microsoft resident is suggesting to us that AV on the
servers themselves is not necessary and will only introduce problems and
instability (particularly Symantec's product). He said that when a virus
outbreak occurs that actually gets inside, a quick ExMerge on the server is
just as effective as pushing out virus defs using the AV
product.
With AV software on the firewall and on
the desktops, what do people think about not putting AV on the Exchange
servers themselves?
