We are moving from Groupshield to Antigen and for a while we were running Antigen on a server that still had Groupshield installed, although it was not running. Even this arrangement caused some problems for Antigen, so I shudder to think what would happen if they were both running.
-Peter -----Original Message----- From: Chris Scharff [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2001 11:23 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Groupshield For Exchange Version 4.5 I have concerns about running GroupShield in general.... Running two Exchange AV products on the same server would not be something I'd do no matter what the vendors. As Sybari can use multiple scan engines, I think you're probably already well served in the redundancy department.
