I am implementing a Linux server w/ SAMBA as the primary file server for a law office. I need virus scanning on this system. This is not a direct component to SAMBA, but I figured most SAMBA shops would have virus protection at the server level. I looked at Trend ServerProtect (a closed-source & packaged product) but it has problems with multi-processor servers, and my server has dual processors. Any recommendations. Also as a sidenote, how does SAMBA work with SMP (multi-processors)?

Have you checked out SuSE Enterprise Linux Server, it's samba comes with a VFS module that interfaces really nicely to virus scanning software.

Hi. Maybe you want to have a look at: http://www.openantivirus.org We are using Samba/Samba-Vscan/Sophos in here on a 60 user fileserver and it works really fine. No problems at all.
