Have you tried using clamav on the Linux boxes ? This might help:

Could you plumb in something based on / around inotify ? I presume the 
samba datastore is a local block device on the linux machine itself ?

Yes, Samba-Vscan was the first option I tried.  It didn't compile at all 
on FC7 with Samba 3.0.28a sources, and in any case its web site says 
it's a proof of concept.  I'm looking for something a bit more robust.

Man, I /could/ throw something together, but I was hoping there would be 
a ready-made solution!  Not being paid enough to do hard-core FOSS 
development in this particular field :)
