I am new to Java System Messaging Server. I would like to know that what is the Anti-Virus Software that can be use with Java System Messaging Server. (Symantec is the one but I dont know about the other)
And I would like to ask that can I use NOD32 (ESET) with Messaging Server ?
Thank you very much.
You can use pretty much any virus scanner you like, either running locally on the same box, or remotely on anothe box. Which one you choose will define how you call it.
Many folk use ClamAV, which is free, and now has full integration into Messaging Server using a similar mechanism to how we integrate SpamAssassin. Documentation will be in the next release, but the bits are already there.
Well, NOD32 isn't one I've ever heard of, so I can' t really know, can I?
Personally, I use ClamAV, because it's very good, and it's free.
Trend is good, as are some others. They're not free.
Ah. I just looked up NOD32. It appears to be for an individual user, to be run on a windows box. I doubt you will want to attempt to use it for a server, unless you want to pay them for enterprise version. How does that get called?
This is the link for NOD32 http://www.eset.com/products/email_servers.php . The license require to pay for this software but I dont know how much does it cost. If it is not too expensive, it would be the good choice. However, I will start my messaging server with Freeware because this is the first time of investment.
Ok. NOD32 runs as smtp filter. That's easy to configure with Messaging Server, using the 'aliasdetourhost" keyword.
In the comparison test they show on their website, I note that they don't compare against ClamAV. ClamAV has no license fees. It's open source. It runs on Linux and Solaris. I'd go there, first.
Since you're sensitive to costs, I'd suggest you have a look at running your system on Solaris X86. It's free, too.
Messaigng Server, SpamAssassin and ClamAV all work very well on Solaris.
