I'm curious if there is, or anyone is working on, a Win32 client filesystem scanner that uses clamd? Or if there is a good trick for scanning Win32 workstations with clam?
If you share (and mount) the disk via samba, you can use clamscan to scan files a win disk.
True, I was just wondering if there was something more elegant.
Take a look this article:
http://www.linux-mag.com/2003-01/guru_01.html
It is about using samba pseudoprinters, I think this concept could be used for virii scan with clam.
You could have a pseudoprinter where files are submited for scanning.
It also requieres some work but I think it could be easier than installing cygnus tools.
Also, it is also a more elegant solution...:-)
Anyway, just sugesting another option...
You can mount the win share in linux via smbmount, for details check the manual.
Also, I think you could compile clam in win using cygnus tools, is this rigth? Does someone have tryed this?
Thar requires installing mountains of stuff on ~200 Win32 workstations. Not fun. I was just curious if there was a way to use a clamd listening
on an IP port as a centralized way of virus scanning. A client that
could submit for testing all local files changed with the last 24 hours,
etc... If not, hopefully someone will write such a thing someday.
You are wrigth I also think this is overkilled for the task...
Can someone else tell us about porting clam to win?
I also would like to know about it.
Sorry, should I supplyed few responses and too many questions to your query, :-(
Thats Ok.
