Re: anti virus software for mail server
We've used RAV for over a year, we're a pretty small site for this list (probably only about 300 users max) but it's worked PERFECTLY. The updating system has never failed, and it's never failed to catch a virus, including the morning we got slammed with about 250 bugbear messages from our local ISP. One thing we do with it from time to time is also use the engine to scan the home directories of our users (the main email server is connected via nfs to our samba server)... It works great for that too, although it's only ever found one macro virus. For us (2 domains) it's US$60 or something similar for a year of updates, I don't think you can beat that. We'd originally looked at it because it interfaced with the two primary things we were interested in, Openbsd and postfix, but we're planning on using it on our local debian server here as well as our colo redhat server in the states.

Re: anti virus software for mail server
Yes, it's a great Romanian AV software. But why not try a GPL software first -- ClamAV? I didn't take a look at ClamAV yet! I need a stable, proven-to-work solution which will still work fine under heavy load.

Markus, I've been using this product for a few months now and must say that the virusscanning part of it is really good. We are running an isp that's serving 500k+ customers and are running RAV on the incoming smtps and relays, you can imagine what amount of mail has to be scanned here. The software still doesn't use a lot of system resources and is quite configurable. We run qmail as MTA and ofcourse Debian as OS. RAV comes in rpm packages, I've requested that they make native debs and they said they are looking into it. So for now you should use alien to convert. Also you will have to make sure ownership and permissions are set right but that's all documented. The spamfiltering part of it sux. Virus definition updates are easily automated. The pricing is pretty cheap compared to other commercial vendors like McAffee etc. Response on support requests via e-mail is quick. So all in all I'm pretty happy with it. grtx, Mark
Re: anti virus software for mail server
Well I don't think the price is too bad for a ISP. The clamav engine seems to be last updated 21-Nov-2002 ... quite a while and it's not v1.0 yet. How many users are you providing antivirus for ? Which MTA are you using ? It is a bit pricy. I have used http://clamav.elektrapro.com/ with great sucess. Lot cheaper and works well. Kind Regards, Markus

RE: anti virus software for mail server
Can someone fill me in on ClamAV a little bit, the engine hasn't been updated in a long time, but the virus signatures appear very recent. Who is updating the signatures? How often do they come out? -- C. R. Oldham Director of Technology NCA CASI -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: anti virus software for mail server
I already use amavis + clamav for our servers and works fine.I have 9 months using clamav and his virus data base is update one o two times in a week. That sounds great. So could you give us a bit of a short review, like how much mail traffic those servers have to handle, etc. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
