Topic: Kaspersky Anti-virus for qmail

[damjanjarc@netscape.net]

Hi

I would like to install Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Qmail on E-smith 5.1.2.
 
Is it possible to make it work?

As it's a rather painful product to install, I'd suggest leaving it as a last resort and going for a slightly easier package to install and maintain (such as RAV or something).

Regards,
Luke.

...not to mention RAV (and its more well known counterparts) tend to be cheaper.

Hi,

KAV works fine on my E-Smith Server.

I use "Kaspersky Anti-Virus for  Linux  (Daemon) build 136, built on Jul 24 2001 at 21:07:12".

After install read the instructions in /opt/AVP/kavkeeper/INSTALL.qmail.

Now the IMPORTANT file:
/opt/AVP/kavkeeper/kavkeeper.ini
--DEMO kavkeeper.ini---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT is that you use [user]@host.domain.com

DONT FORGET THE HOSTNAME or the result ist a loop if an email ist infected.
