We have the MOE supplied AV software installed at a local primary/middle school. The school now has two linux file servers, one is the PDC for the windows domain. Desktop machines are win98SE or XP. The eTrust AV software is installed on all windows boxen. The linux server component of eTrust provides a distribution server intended to download virus signature updates from the CA site and distribute them out to clients. We are not using the linux server component for various reasons. It seems fairly heavy on resources and doesn't actually do much at the end of the day. Instead I setup a cron job to check for new updates on the CA ftp site and to download them if required (downloads and diffs index file first). This replaces the only useful function of the distribution server. The windows clients are configured to update from a samba file share.
