OAV samba-vscan seems to be a nice one, in the future. But at the moment it only hooks to file open, which is the exact opposite of what I want. I assume that a file that exists on the server has already been scanned in some way. I only want INCOMING files to be scanned. Samba-vscan only scans outgoing files (incoming is on the todo-list), the Kaspersky monitor does both. pk.
