Anti-Virus on OES Linux

[juniorb2000]

Hi,

I'm interested to see which Anti-Virus products people use on OES Linux and any feedback you may have on these.

I ask as we are about start Migrating our Netware file servers to OES Linux and we use Netshield on the current ones so LinuxShield seemed like the obvious choice fro them once migrated... However, after some research, it would seem that this is not compatible with NSS volumes, which we intend to use.

Thanks in Advance.

Open Enterprise Server, which is Netware running a linux kernel. Novell's half-step to SLES.

Supposedly Symantec is working on it. Have you looked at ClamAV?

Found this link on Novell's site. All known backup and AV 'partners' and their status per NW version:

Well Linux OES is strictly just SLES9 with Novell tools\packages such as iManager, iFolder etc on top. OES gives you the choice of that, or a Netware 6.5 kernel with the same stuff.

So basically what I'm asking about is SLES9 as I'm a Linux newbie. I'll check the links though, cheers!!

It's a bit more involved than that... for instance, SLES does not support NSS volumes. OES does.
