it is strange that no one shows interest on this subject , any one using doctor web? well i hope they add this feature soon because it is realy very very hard to set each clients Dr. Web configuration manually!

Is it possible to integrate an anti-virus program in plesk to scan the server?

My server have now a worm...

farsad afaik you should install sych an antivirus manually and saparately , Dr web works with qmail and only scans I/O mails.

 

[Farshad@]

Which anti-virus software do you recommend?

There are much anti-virus programmes...

clamav

If you use drweb you can edit the drweb.ini or drweb_qmail file (don't remember which one) and make drweb check every mail on your server!

This link provides complete installation instructions for qscan and clamav for a RHES 3 server.

Very easy to follow and works like a charm. Make sure you disable drweb prior to installing clamav.

How can be disabled DrWeb to not start anymore?

 

[Cranky]

You can uninstall with ...

rpm -e drweb-qmail drweb

Is not the best solution, cause PSA on start YELL that cannot find it. :-(

Hi,

I just disabled drweb on Plesk 7.1.7 using the control panel.

This worked for me:

- Login to Plesk

- Go to 'Server' -> 'Services management' page

- Stop the "Dr.Web antivirus" service

Basically it will swap the special drweb 'qmail-queue' file with the original one.

Let me know if it works for you too.

Regards.

I am DEFINATELY interested in this feature and I have no idea why there wouldn't be an option to make Dr. Web enabled by default instead of disabled by default server-wide. I tried editing /etc/drweb/users.conf, but to no avail. Even when I try to add a user to that file myself, it won't show in Plesk as being protected.

Anyone come up with an answer for this yet?
