Mail server anti-virus software?

2002-01-21 Thread Mikko Kilpikoski

Hi.

I am setting up a (updating an existing) mail server at our company and 
would like to get some recommendations on what anti-virus software to 
run on the server. Currently I'm only looking for an on-demand mail 
scanner. (Maybe also with some kind of HTTP proxy support too. On-access 
scanning would also be a nice option, if I set up a samba server later.)


I've tried to check a few websites for info on the commercial products, 
but I find them mostly confusing. Many have like one to a billion 
different 'products' or 'solutions' listed and I can't find the magic 
word linux anywhere either... :/


Well, here's my list of questions:
   Are there any free or no cost solutions (for corporate use)?
   Should I go for McAfee, Kaspersky, H+BEDV, Trend Micro, F-Secure or 
something else?

   What are you using?
   What's good or bad about them/it?
   Is there any comparisions of the products available in the web?
   Also, which mailserver would you recommend? (I have to learn one 
anyway.)

   Any good resources in the web?

The server is running Debian Potato 2.2 with Bunk's kernel 2.4 updates. 
Current kernel is 2.2.19, but I will probably update it to 2.4(.17) soon 
to get ext3 support. The current MTA is sendmail 8.9.3-23. (The HTTP 
proxy solution that the company uses, is Apache 1.3.9-14 with 
proxy_module and Junkbuster 2.0-7.1)


Thanks in advance,

named: bad referral x from y?

2001-10-10 Thread Mikko Kilpikoski

Hi.

I'm getting a lot of following message in named log:

bad referral (x.x.x.x.in-addr.arpa !< *.x.x.in-addr.arpa) from [y.y.y.y].53

Where x is some host in a some network owned by X and y is my ISP's 
nameserver. I've gotten this message about two hosts from different 
networks. The networks in question are owned by same individual.


What does it mean? Should I be worried? Logcheck considers it a security 
violation. What can I do about it?


tia,

security.debian.org mirrors?

2000-10-20 Thread Mikko Kilpikoski
Hi.

I'm unable to reach security.debian.org or nonus.debian.org
and can't find a mirror for security.debian.org.  Is there any?
Where? Can I trust it/them? Oh, and does it contain the security
fixes for nonus packages (if any)?
