AVG File Server ed.: server is very slow: scan and cc for each user ?

Just installed the file server edition and it runs avgcc and the scan for each logged in user. This doesn't seem right: shouldn't this run as one process that scans and traps, not as a new process for each user? And it's bogging a fairly powerful (and low use) server down something awful when 4 or more users are logged on, because it begins a separate scan for each one.

Is there a configuration to improve this?

Thanks.
 
Whoops, I should add that this is, of course, a terminal server environment, thus the multiple "logged" in users. Also, I'm aware of the "for all users" option, but this apparently just ensures a no-logged-in-users server will run tests. I just want to avoid multiple simultaneous scans.

Thanks.
 
Try disabling the "test plan in basic mode" for each user. This test (enabled by default), will run for each user the first time they log in each day (or at 8AM).
 
(Thanks for the reply.)


I've done that, and what makes me think I have this configured incorrectly is that each user has a different setting. If I login as Joe, I show that task enabled; as Bob, not enabled. I would think the fileserver edition would have a way of administratively enabling (or disabling) this task or that, across the board. I just want one scan a day, not one per user. Do you think this is something AVG FS can do?

Again, thanks for the reply.
