Personally, other than File servers, Exchange servers, SMTP email servers, and Share Point servers (i.e. servers with user content and access), I haven't had AV detect anything in a number of years. Sample size is about a half-dozen environments ranging from 20 users (5 servers) to 4000 users (300+ servers)
As for the others, I think I'll build a Server Core system in my virtual environment and start testing these things out. It is certainly worth knowing... -ASB: http://XeeSM.com/AndrewBaker On Fri, Jun 4, 2010 at 8:33 AM, Christopher Bodnar < christopher_bod...@glic.com> wrote: > I've been reading this thread pretty closely since we will be brining up a > 2008 test domain very shortly.
