Hello and thanks for this! BUT.... Are there any chance to check remote machines? Only check actual def one time and after that some other Pc's
Best regards Per >>> "Dirk Bulinckx" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2006-08-16 11:50 >>> Change was done. There is an option in the GUI, were you can say "Local system must have AV product installed". If that is enabled then it will give a down when the AV is not installed (the %e parameter will include the version from the web), with this option disabled (default) the %e parameter will only show the webserver (without any other text). As for the McAfee version issue, that's also fixed in build 7 which can be downloaded from http://beta.woodstone.nu/soft/setup_avcom.exe (http://beta.woodstone.nu/soft/setup_avcom.exe) Dirk Bulinckx. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dirk Bulinckx Sent: Wednesday, August 16, 2006 11:26 AM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: RE: [SA-list] Anti-virus signature checker People will also use it ,just to get the latest info. Maybe that I should add an option in the GUI for it. That way the mesage (%e parameter) can also be different. As for the version thing with McAfee....I'll remove the first digit from the web-version before doing the compare.

One immediate problem, when I try it with McAfee: it finds version 4830 on the web, but version 830 on the machine (i.e. it's losing the initial digit). What's the logic of giving an "up" if there's nothing in the registry? I would have thought that nothing in the reg implies that AV isn't installed, which would be a *bad* thing.

We have a little COM check that is already able to do a little. * Aladin eSafe: get the version number from the internet (if they change the look of their website we have a problem) * Symantec AV: get the version number from the internet (if they change the look of their website we have a problem) * CA eTrust (both for the VET and the Innoculate engine) get the version number from a TXT file they have on the internet * McAfee (NAI) get the version number from an INI file they have on the internet compare that to the version that is in the registry of the system running SA. * versions are the same gives an up * versions are different gives a down * nothing in the registry give an up too All of them (except for CA eTrust which uses FTP) are using the HTTP protocol to get the info from the internet. This is via a direct connection (NO proxy support!) This is a FIRST version. We would like to extend the possibilities to more AV products (internet part) and also the local part (get the version numbers on the local system too). So if you have info on were we can find the info (internet & local) for a specific product, then please let us know so we can extend/enhance this check. You can download it from http://beta.woodstone.nu/soft/setup_avcom.exe Dirk Bulinckx.
