Dear user, you have acquired NOD32 for Linux/BSD File Server - NOD32LFS/NOD32BFS - probably the best anti-
virus system running under the Linux/BSD OS. As you will soon nd out, the system using, the state-of-the-artNOD32
scanning engine, has unsurpassed scanning speed and detection rate, combined with a very small footprint that makes
it the ideal choice for any Linux/BSD OS server.
In the rest of this chapter we review a key features of the system.
NOD32 scanning engine algorithms provide both the highest detection rate and the fastest scanning times.
The system is developed to run on the single-processor units as well as on themulti-processor units.
It includes unique advanced heuristics for Win32 worms and back-doors.
InbuiltNOD32 archivers unpack archived objectswithout the need for any external programs.
In order to increase speed and eciency of the system, its architecture is based on the running daemon (resident
program) where all the scanning requests are sent to.
The system supports selective scanner conguration specic for user or client/server identication.
Six various levels of logging can be congured to get information about system activity and inltrations.
One of the major advantages is the fact that the system installation does not require external libraries or programs
except for LIBC.
The system can be congured to notify any person in case of detected inltration. To run eciently, the system
requires just 16MB of hard-disk space and 32MB of RAM. The system runs smoothly under the 2.2.x, 2.4.x and 2.6.x
Linux OS kernel versions and also under 5.x, 6.x FreeBSD OS kernel versions.
From lower-powered, small oce servers to enterprise-class ISP servers with thousands of users, the system delivers
the performance and scalability you expect from a UNIX based solution and the unequaled security of NOD32.
