Do you want to stop it getting a virus, or do you want it to protect other computers from windows viruses? ClamAV can be used to plug in to a proxy server or email server running on Ubuntu to strip out the viruses as they go past. Viruses themselves tend not to run on anything but Windows

Hardwarediagnostics? Hi All, Would anyone recommend an antivirus product for an Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 server? Also, I have a suspicion that our server may have a hardware fault. This is because yesterday the server shutdown when I attempted to establish a remote session with Secure Shell. This happened twice in October last year, but not since. I could find no evidence of a run-away process, which I was told could also be the cause of a shutdown. I already know about memtest, but can anyone recommend other useful diagnostic tools? Many thanks.
