| Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] SortMonster Sniffer
| 
| 
| 
| 
| Sorry if this is off-topic, the more direct mailing list is 
| closed to non-subscribers.
| 
| My setup:
| 
| Twin 1G proc.
| 1G RAM
| 20x5G 10K RPM SCSI RAID 5 for OS + programs + mailboxes 
| (Separate Adaptec
| Controller) (C: D:)
| 20G 10K RPM Mirrored SCSI Set for spool + logging (Separate Adaptec
| Controller) (E:)
| 
| Running:
| 
| Latest Imail + hotfixes/patches
| Declude Virus (latest beta)
| Declude JunkMail (latest beta)
| 
| With the recent demise of ORBZ, I decided to try out Sniffer. 
| My results were less than pleasing :-(
| 
| I first defined SNIFFER as an external test to fit into my 
| weighting scheme:
| 
| SNIFFER       external        nonzero "E:\sniffer\SNFDemo.exe 
| 00000000"     15      0
| 
| It seemed to work right away, there were no errors 
| (immediately) in the logs of Declude or Sniffer. Sniffer was 
| checking (passing + failing) messages left and right. Declude 
| was also processing SPAM and VIRUS messages properly (test 
| messages were sent through and verified for each instance).
| 
| After several minutes I noticed that the number of running 
| processes had jumped a bit, and became concerned. Looking 
| back at a refreshed copy of the logfiles for both programs 
| (Sniffer + Declude) I saw no problems reported but an 
| occasional timeout of a virus scanning process. This isn't 
| normal, and I have more machine than necessary. Processes 
| kept piling up and eventually everything slowed to a halt 
| eventually killing SMTPD32. There were so many outstanding 
| declude, smtp32, and SNFDemo processes that I had to restart 
| the machine for a quick out.
| 
| Is there a problem running these 3 (2.5?) products together? 
| With no errors logged other than virus scanner timeouts, I 
| don't have much to go on. Declude, and Sniffer were "working" 
| properly right up until their demise as far as the logging goes.
| 
| 
| ** Is it possible Sniffer and Declude Virus were stepping on 
| each others toes accessing the file for scanning?
