Are you pushing antivirus updates out to all the workstations to make sure they are always up to date? You could enable 'on access' scanning on the CentOS box, however the amount of load it would create would be dependent on the usage level I suppose. Having an extra layer of scanning IMO is always good. Different anti-virus programs seem to catch different things just because of the sheer volume of new viruses and such that come out every day. _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
