NOD32 for Linux/BSD File Server
This product is distributed as a binary le. Its format for Linux OS is:
nod32ls.i386.ext.bin
where ’ext’ is a Linux OS distribution dependent sux, i.e. ’deb’ for Debian Linux OS distribution, ’rpm’ for RedHat and
SuSE Linux OS distributions, ’tgz’ for other Linux OS distributions.
Note that we support also RedHat Ready and Novell (SuSE) Ready variation of the product

The RedHat and Novell
(SuSE) Ready variation of the binary le format is:
nod32ls-rsr.i386.rpm.bin
Slightly dierent format is used to name the binary le for BSD OS,
nod32bs.i386.ext.tgz.bin
where ’ext’ stands for BSD OS distribution dependent sux, i.e. ’fbs4’ for FreeBSD 4.xx, ’fbs5’ for FreeBSD 5.xx and
’fbs6’ for FreeBSD 6.xx OS distributions.
In order to install or update the product on Linux OS, use the statement:
sh ./nod32ls.i386.ext.bin
resp. the RedHat Ready or Novell (SuSE) Ready variation of the product is installed using the following statement:
sh ./nod32ls-rsr.i386.rpm.bin
In case of BSD OS, the install statement is as follows.
sh ./nod32bs.i386.ext.tgz.bin
As a result the User License Acceptance Agreement related with the product is shown. Once you have conrmed
the Acceptance Agreement, the whole installation package is extracted into the current working directory and relevant
information regarding installation or update of the package extracted as well as information necessary for uninstall the
already installed package is printed into terminal.
Once the package is installed and the main NOD32 daemon service is running, in Linux OS you can check its operation
by using command:
ps -C nod32d
In case of BSD OS you can use a similar command:
ps -ax nod32d | grep nod32d
You will see the following (or similar) message on return:
PID TTY TIME CMD
2226 ? 00:00:00 nod32d
2229 ? 00:00:00 nod32d
where at least two main NOD32 daemon ’nod32d’ processes running in the background have to be present. One of
the processes is so-called process and threads manager of the system. The other serves as NOD32 scanning process.
 The dierence from the original RedHat and SuSE Linux OS package is that the RedHat Ready and Novell SuSE Ready package
meets criteria dened by FHS Filesystem Hierarchy Standard dened as a part of Linux Standard Base document required by the
RedHat Ready and Novell SuSE Ready certicate This means in particular that the package is installed as an addon application
ie the primary installation directory is ’⁄opt⁄eset⁄nod’ instead of the base Linux OS directory structure However there are more
dierences between the original and ’Ready’ variation of the product that are beyond the scope of this document
