ESET NOD32 ANTIVIRUS - FOR LINUX-BSD MAIL SERVER User Manual

4
Dear user, you have acquired NOD32 for Linux/BSD Mail Server - NOD32LMS/NOD32BMS - 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-art NOD32
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 the multi-processor units.
• It includes unique advanced heuristics for Win32 worms and back-doors.
• Inbuilt NOD32 archivers unpack archived objects without the need for any external programs.
• In order to increase speed and eciency 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 conguration specic for user or client/server identication.
• Six various levels of logging can be congured to get information about system activity and inltrations.
• 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 congured to notify any person in case of detected inltration.
• Information about inltration can be congured to be written into an e-mail header, footer and subject.
• The system is MTA-independent, i.e. it does not depend on Mail Server used.
To run eciently, the system requires just 16MB of hard-disk space and 32MB of RAM. The NOD32LMS/NOD32BMS
runs smoothly under the 2.2.x, 2.4.x and 2.6.x LinuxOS kernel versions and also under 5.x, 6.x FreeBSD OS kernel
versions. The NOD32LMS/NOD32BMS system supports most popular server software including Sendmail, Postx, Qmail,
Exim, etc.
From lower-powered, small oce 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.
