You can use smbclient on linux not? But I have the impression you are handling this incorrectly I am always disabling file and printersharing. Maybe better is to scan a snapshot of the vm disk image?
You also have to consider the traffic you are generating, I am already having issues getting my windows images below 40GB. So all this windows crap is constantly going over your network. How often do you even want to scan? What is with this real time protection of windows is it running or not? So maybe just see if you can focus on user data + running integrity check with sfc /scannow (? not sure about this) Maybe first start thinking a bit what it is you actually want to achieve. > If I mapped a network drive to my server running clamav would it be > possible to scan that network drive? > > So if I map another servers C drive to my clam server could I run a scan > of that mapped c drive using clamav? > > > On Fri, 5 Apr 2024, Nathan Millard via clamav-users wrote: > > > So I have a kali Linux server, could I use that to scan my windows vms > > for viruses using this "For Linux etc. you can get a central machine > > (either the same server or a different one) to connect to each client, > > eg with ssh, and make it run the above scan?" > > > > Sorry I am quite clamav so sorry if I am being stupid but I just want > > a simple way to scan my LAN for viruses and get results back and not > > have to run 15 different clam scans on all my vms. > > I cannot speak for any Windows ClamAV packages, but the official ClamAV > and the linux packages I have seen do not have a network level interface > to do that. > > Since you wish to scan VMs, there may be a way to scan them from the host > server, though that would only be safe when they are idle, and probably > only when the filesystems are unmounted. > _______________________________________________ Manage your clamav-users mailing list subscription / unsubscribe: https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav-documentation https://docs.clamav.net/#mailing-lists-and-chat
