Wasn't Doug gonna write us all a SxS on this kinda thing? IIRC, he's running some kinda anti-virus thingy on the list mails. I seem to remember him mentioning something about that, anyway. Then again, he HAS been fairly busy on other matters, of late... Checking the SxS, there is a section, by Bill Parker, on "Installing NAI's Anti-Virus on a OpenLinux 2.3 Machine". Maybe that'll give you a starting point.
