Warm regards from Nishith Vyas.

I am working as a Linux System Administrator,having 5 years of overall IT experience.

Now, I would like to install Linux based AntiVirus Server with Windows Clients. As per the existing setup, all Windows machines are using "demo" or "evaluation" copy of antivirus & all antivirus softwares are not same on all windows computers.

Someone is using Trend-Micro ,other is using Avast.....etc etc....

Due to above listed problem,i want to implement Linux Based Free AntiVirus Server,which will be connected directly on the internet. The Linux AntiVirus server will updated it's database from Internet automatically.

Inside the Linux Server,all Windows PC's are connected in a same Local Area Connection. All windows XP computers will fetch the updated data from the Anti Virus Server.

Also,i am searching MAIL RESPONDER OR POP UP Windows,when any virus found on any client machine.

My company needs Cost Effective solution & Linux is the best solution for this.

Please let me know if anyone has implemented this type of technology.

Advance Thanks,
Nishith Vyas.

Does ClamAV priovide us Server-Client technology?

I mean to say Is it possible to create ClamAV Server,which is connected directly with internet & "Clamav Client installer for windows XP" that will fetch updates & latest plugins from "ClamAV Server"?

Please Respond.
