Hey Guys, I have a network of windows clients with a couple of linux servers for various tasks. What I would like to do is have some form of antivirus on the clients that will log alerts to something on a linux server and store the info in sql. Anybody have any idea on something that can do this? I tried asking on the securityfocus virus list and I emailed grisoft about their network product. Neither proved fruitful... I want to be able to run my own custom reporting from sql on the fly basically... Any pointers would be _greatly_ appreciated as even googling doesn't appear to be helping me here... Thanks, Wayne
Hello Wayne, I don't think it is exactly what you are looking for, but I'm currently evaluating Computer Associates eTrust Antivirus for use in a quite mixed environment. It works quite good and has something they call "Alert Manager". I haven't had the chance to review all data sinks they provide, but I think they will at least support a user-defined script (which could then insert data into your RDBMs). They also provide a great Report-Engine which probably already provides most of the reporst you could genereate through your RDBMS. The only problem - at least for me - is that they currently don't support RHEL 4 (which will change in the next release). Oh... and just to mention it: it only costs about $ 40 per license, no matter what system it shall run on (Windows 95-2003, Linux/i386, Linux/390, HP-UX, MacOS X, Netware) and what options (i.e. MS-Exchange and/or Novell Groupwise Scanner) you need.

Hi Andreas, Sounds like it might do the trick, Ill check it out will probably have to wait for the next release for a roll out so it supports centos 4, just a quick question.. On your last point, I can run a single license @ $40 to scan emails? Its usually per user when you do that isnt it with most products..
