I thought trend scamail for exchange can handle is stores. I just
installed trend scanmail for exchange 2k and so far I think I'm quite
happy with it.
We bought the suite so next week will start installing the spam
filters. Any tips from the current users of scanmail a newbie should
know.

But on the technical side of things, I had a BE installation that would
pop up at times and fail a backup telling me the Exchange database was
corrupted. Management told me to prove it using something else besides
the BE report. There were no Event log indications, user's were able to
send and receive mail, but when we attempted to move the mailboxes to a
replacement machine in the same site, the wheels fell off, the tranny
fell out and the engine just blew a cork.  The last good backup had
migrated out of the rotation and we ended up loosing about half the data
for about 125 users.

Management listened afterwards.

Thanks, John.  I didn't want to come across as harsh, I just wanted you
to provide some reasoning for why you felt that way.  I've seen so many
posts here and elsewhere blindly recommending to folks that they should
run eseutil and/or isinteg, etc., when the poster has no clue how
powerful those tools are or what they really do.  I'm not inferring
that's what you did, but that is where I am coming from.

I will take a closer look at the store, but I am still of the opinion
that the Symantec product is at fault.

I understood that you had not scanned the Exchange files with a file
based AV product. However, if you have a product that runs for a long
time, then suddenly stops working (locking up the server, etc) then the
server starts working again when you take the product off, you should
look at the points of intersection as to where a problem may have
developed. In this case, your message databases.

Yes, Scanmail for Exchange is Trend's product that scans
incoming/outgoing e-mail.

As far as Spam filters, you just need to be careful of what the actions
are.  When we used Symantec AV/Filtering on our Exchange server and
enabled the filtering, it was quarantining everything.  You could either
quarantine, or leave it alone.  Problem was when it quarantined it, it
ripped the message apart, so if we wanted to release a quarantined
message, it wasn't in the same format.

Trend eManager(SPAM software) does not rip apart the messages, simply
quarantines them.
You simply need to create a new Exchange user folder and quarantine all
email to that folder.
Then you can review them and forward onto anyone if the quarantine was a
false positive.

Our works great, especially this latest virus, we put all the subject lines
from the virus in the filter and no one received any SPAM from the virus, or
an Trend protected us from getting infected from the virus.

Great product.

 We had been running 3 layers until it seems that Symantec's 
 product for
 Exchange 2000 (coupled with Corp Ed as file level) locked up 
 the server
 a couple of times.  I can't prove it was Symantec, but I 
 removed all AV
 off our Exchange server, and it hasn't had a problem since.  And yes,
 I'm not stupid enough to scan the Exchsrvr directories with file-based
 scanners.  Now, we are only running 2.  SAV for SMTP Gateways, and
 Desktop.

 I was curious how many have 3 layers of protection for their email
 systems. 
 My current assignment has me at a place where they are 
 comfortable with
 desktop and a set of SMTP servers doing virus and spam. Desktop is
 Symantec and Trend on the SMTP servers. My gut feeling is to also
 protect the IS stores too. How many have 3 levels.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

Thanks, John.  I didn't want to come across as harsh, I just wanted you
to provide some reasoning for why you felt that way.  I've seen so many
posts here and elsewhere blindly recommending to folks that they should
run eseutil and/or isinteg, etc., when the poster has no clue how
powerful those tools are or what they really do.  I'm not inferring
that's what you did, but that is where I am coming from.

I will take a closer look at the store, but I am still of the opinion
that the Symantec product is at fault.

not? No problems here...

a couple of times.  I can't prove it was Symantec, but I removed all AV
off our Exchange server, and it hasn't had a problem since.  And yes,

2003-08-21 Thread Ben Winzenz
So you don't think that a particular product can have problems on one
system and not another?  That's a pretty weak argument.

I don't have any problems running it like this, so you shouldn't.

Being a Network Administrator, you of all people should know that
problems are sometimes hit and miss.  How many times have you seen 10
identical desktops and 1 is having problems for no reason whereas the
other 9 are fine.  Or if you have ever deployed an app via GPO, and 99
out of 100 machines take it, but the other 1 it does not deploy to.

There may be a difference in the way I set my server up from yours.  My
network environment is likely different.  I could have chosen different
options in the Symantec GUI.  Fact is, you don't have a clue how my
environment is set up, so put a sock in it unless you have something
truly useful to say.

And calling me names really hurts my wittle feewings.  I think I am
going to run to my room and cry for a while.

run eseutil and/or isinteg, etc., when the poster has no clue how
powerful those tools are or what they really do.  I'm not inferring

What was a reasonable question?  I totally missed that.  John's original
post said he thought I ought to consider running maintenance (usually
eseutil or isinteg).  No reasoning why.  I don't like to run powerful
maintenance tools against my server unless I have a good reason why.  I
asked John to tell me why he thought I should run maintenance and he
responded with why he thought there was a possibility that I had a
problem with my store.  I haven't seen John post anything that says I
was too defensive.  Quite the contrary.  When I responded asking him to
state why he thought I had corruption (or possible corruption), he
responded with why.  For that I responded back and thanked him for his
thoughts.  Had you posted something useful or well though out, I likely

 based AV product. However, if you have a product that runs for a long 
 time, then suddenly stops working (locking up the server,
 etc) then the
 server starts working again when you take the product off, you should 
 look at the points of intersection as to where a problem may have 
 developed. In this case, your message databases.

We had been running 3 layers until it seems that Symantec's product for
Exchange 2000 (coupled with Corp Ed as file level) locked up the server a
couple of times.  I can't prove it was Symantec, but I removed all AV off
our Exchange server, and it hasn't had a problem since.  And yes, I'm not
stupid enough to scan the Exchsrvr directories with file-based scanners.
Now, we are only running 2.  SAV for SMTP Gateways, and Desktop.

 I was curious how many have 3 layers of protection for their email

 My current assignment has me at a place where they are

 desktop and a set of SMTP servers doing virus and spam. Desktop is
 Symantec and Trend on the SMTP servers. My gut feeling is to also
 protect the IS stores too. How many have 3 levels.

 We had been running 3 layers until it seems that Symantec's product 
 for Exchange 2000 (coupled with Corp Ed as file level) locked up the 
 server a couple of times.  I can't prove it was Symantec, but I 
 removed all AV off our Exchange server, and it hasn't had a problem 
 since.  And yes, I'm not stupid enough to scan the Exchsrvr 
 directories with file-based scanners.  Now, we are only running 2.
 SAV for SMTP Gateways, and Desktop.

  I understood that you had not scanned the Exchange files 
 with a file 
  based AV product. However, if you have a product that runs 
 for a long

  etc) then the
  server starts working again when you take the product off, 
 you should 
  look at the points of intersection as to where a problem may have 
  developed. In this case, your message databases.

I understood that you had not scanned the Exchange files with a file based
AV product. However, if you have a product that runs for a long time, then
suddenly stops working (locking up the server, etc) then the server starts
working again when you take the product off, you should look at the points
of intersection as to where a problem may have developed. In this case, your
message databases.

-1018 errors don't have to be recorded to have a problem inside the
database.

I don't have a corrupted database.  Why would you or what leads you to make
that assumption?  I have no 1018 errors, I have no event logs of any kind
that point to any database errors.  The problem has not re-occurred since
removing the AV software.  Like I said before, I did not have the file-level
AV scanning the databases.

If you are going to make a claim such as I should run maintenance, back it
up with the reasons why.  Not just saying you think I have database
corruption.  Tell me why you think I have corruption.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

2003-08-21 Thread John Matteson
I don't blindly recommend anything, except maybe my wife's three cheese
pasta in a pot.

But on the technical side of things, I had a BE installation that would
pop up at times and fail a backup telling me the Exchange database was
corrupted. Management told me to prove it using something else besides
the BE report. There were no Event log indications, user's were able to
send and receive mail, but when we attempted to move the mailboxes to a
replacement machine in the same site, the wheels fell off, the tranny
fell out and the engine just blew a cork.  The last good backup had
migrated out of the rotation and we ended up loosing about half the data
for about 125 users.

Management listened afterwards.

Thanks, John.  I didn't want to come across as harsh, I just wanted you
to provide some reasoning for why you felt that way.  I've seen so many
posts here and elsewhere blindly recommending to folks that they should
run eseutil and/or isinteg, etc., when the poster has no clue how
powerful those tools are or what they really do.  I'm not inferring
that's what you did, but that is where I am coming from.

I will take a closer look at the store, but I am still of the opinion
that the Symantec product is at fault.

We had been running 3 layers until it seems that Symantec's product for

a couple of times.  I can't prove it was Symantec, but I removed all AV
off our Exchange server, and it hasn't had a problem since.  And yes,
I'm not stupid enough to scan the Exchsrvr directories with file-based

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

2003-08-21 Thread Robert Moir
Its probably worth noting that installing the same scanner in 3 places is not 3 layers 
of protection, its the same layer of protection 3 times. Not quite the same thing. 
 
If your vendor's scanner engine has a problem picking up a certain type of malware, or 
their dat files are slow in coming, you haven't done much for yourself by having their 
product installed in 3 different places. It doesn't matter how many metal detectors I 
walk through in an airport if the item i'm smuggling onto the plane is non-metallic.
 
And no software is perfect including antivirus software, so *all* scanners, even the 
ones we all regard as best of breed, will at some time have a problem spotting a new 
kind of malware stealth method, or the scanner's updates will be a bit slow one 
arriving one day.
 
Regards
Rob

Three here as well.

Sybari running Sophos engine on the protocol servers (all SMTP mail
passes through them, they are in an NLB cluster)

Mailbox Servers have Sybari with Norman Data Defense

Desktops have NAI McAfee

(Spam is marked by spam assassin on a couple of Linux boxes that sit in
front of the protocol servers)

 I was curious how many have 3 layers of protection for their email
 systems. 
 My current assignment has me at a place where they are comfortable
with 
 desktop and a set of SMTP servers doing virus and spam. Desktop is
 Symantec

IS

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

2003-08-20 Thread Nick Field
We use 3.

We use Sophos on the mail gateway (MailSweeper), NAV MSE at server level,
NAV CE (excluding Exch) then NAV CE at desktop.

Despite MailSweeper blocking/quarantining 99.999% of everything we ask it
to, I have seen the odd thing get through.
We also get the odd 'prat' that 'bypasses' policy and brings something in
from outside

We had been running 3 layers until it seems that Symantec's product for
Exchange 2000 (coupled with Corp Ed as file level) locked up the server
a couple of times.  I can't prove it was Symantec, but I removed all AV
off our Exchange server, and it hasn't had a problem since.  And yes,
I'm not stupid enough to scan the Exchsrvr directories with file-based
scanners.  Now, we are only running 2.  SAV for SMTP Gateways, and

That's a mighty big hole to leave open - one of your users POPs their home
account, or hits Hotmail/YahooMail/etc and pulls down an email worm, you're
100% infected internally. Not a risk I'd take.

We do 3 tier - gateway, Exchange and desktop. I wouldn't do less than that
anymore.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

2003-08-20 Thread Ben Winzenz
I don't have a corrupted database.  Why would you or what leads you to
make that assumption?  I have no 1018 errors, I have no event logs of
any kind that point to any database errors.  The problem has not
re-occurred since removing the AV software.  Like I said before, I did
not have the file-level AV scanning the databases.

If you are going to make a claim such as I should run maintenance, back
it up with the reasons why.  Not just saying you think I have database
corruption.  Tell me why you think I have corruption.

I don't have a corrupted database.  Why would you or what leads you to
make that assumption?  I have no 1018 errors, I have no event logs of
any kind that point to any database errors.  The problem has not
re-occurred since removing the AV software.  Like I said before, I did
not have the file-level AV scanning the databases.

If you are going to make a claim such as I should run maintenance, back
it up with the reasons why.  Not just saying you think I have database
corruption.  Tell me why you think I have corruption.

We had been running 3 layers until it seems that Symantec's product for
Exchange 2000 (coupled with Corp Ed as file level) locked up the server
a couple of times.  I can't prove it was Symantec, but I removed all AV
off our Exchange server, and it hasn't had a problem since.  And yes,
I'm not stupid enough to scan the Exchsrvr directories with file-based
scanners.  Now, we are only running 2.  SAV for SMTP Gateways, and

Re: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

2003-08-20 Thread Steve
When I was a messaging consultant I worked for a very large oil company
(well over 100k seats) that had scanning done on the SMTP gateways and on
the desktop, but nothing on the Exchange side (something like 120 e2k
servers).  From what I remember they had not had a email born virus
outbreak\infection in years.  But the way they got away with this was
being very strict on what machines were allowed to plug into their
network.  Normally I recommend 3 levels, but I have to say this oil
company seemed to make 2 levels work (each using a different AV engine).

 I was curious how many have 3 layers of protection for their email systems.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

2003-08-20 Thread Alverson, Tom
We have 3 1/2 layers:

1- custom smap based linux box with spam filtering, attachment blocking, and
some custom blocking of known bad stuff (this one is the 1/2 since it
doesn't really scan for known viruses, just virus like emails)

2- Symantec Antivirus for SMTP Gateways:  This is a separate machine that
processes all inbound mail for our exchange server.

3- Symantec Antivirus for Exchange: Runs on the exchange server and scans
everything (not just inbound from the internet).

4- Symantec Client Antivirus:  All clients have this installed and if 1,2
and 3 fail this may save us.

Subject: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

I was curious how many have 3 layers of protection for their email systems. 
My current assignment has me at a place where they are comfortable with
desktop and a set of SMTP servers doing virus and spam. Desktop is Symantec
and Trend on the SMTP servers. My gut feeling is to also protect the IS
stores too. How many have 3 levels.

We will have 4 levels shortly, using 3 different vendors.

1. Have TrendMicro on the Exchange Servers for the mailboxes.
2. Have McAfee for file scanning on the server level (saved our butts a
couple of times).
3. Have McAfee on the Desktop level.
4. Soon to have Mirapoint installed as front end relays to our IMC's which
uses Sophos virus scanner.

RE: 3 Layers of Virus protection.

2003-08-20 Thread Martin, Jon
One note related to this. It seems to me that having more than one vendor is as 
important as having multiple layers. If you have three or four layers of 'insert your 
AV vendor here'  products and they miss the boat on some virus, then all of those 
layers are irrelevant.

 Subject:  3 Layers of Virus protection.
 
 I was curious how many have 3 layers of protection for their email
 systems. 
 My current assignment has me at a place where they are comfortable
with 
 desktop and a set of SMTP servers doing virus and spam. Desktop is
 Symantec 
 and Trend on the SMTP servers. My gut feeling is to also protect the
IS 
 stores too. How many have 3 levels.

I remember as a kid during the summertime. We would be outside throwing
rocks at cars when you would hear the jingle of the ice cream man. Back then
$5 would get you a snow cone and a good sized bag of weed.

Actually, I think you get two engines of your choice for free, and
beyond that they cost extra.

Check with Sybari, but I believe that when you license Antigen you get
one
engine license included.

Does that mean I will have to buy minimum 2 antivirus product if only
using
Sybari for the framework?

1 antivirus vendor because I need its engine (eg Norman) and another 1
is
Sybari because I need its framework.

Sybari focused on developing the application framework. Virus engines
are
provided by several 3rd party vendors. There are a number of settings
which
can be tweaked with regards to scanning bias to make tradeoffs between
speed
and scanning when using multiple engines.

Pardon my ignorance here about Sybari product. Doesn't it have its
propriery
engine - why use Sophos and Norman Data Defense engine in this instance?

Or perhaps, Sybari has to depend on 3rd party's AV engine ?

Three here as well.

Sybari running Sophos engine on the protocol servers (all SMTP mail
passes
through them, they are in an NLB cluster)

Mailbox Servers have Sybari with Norman Data Defense

Desktops have NAI McAfee

(Spam is marked by spam assassin on a couple of Linux boxes that sit in
front of the protocol servers)

2003-08-20 Thread Hague, Jeff
3 layers - We run a Fortinet firewall at the edge which scans SMTP, POP3, IMAP, HTTP 
and FTP for viruses (at the packet level which is really cool), CA (I know...) on 
Exchange box and CA on the desktops. I beleive we use the VET engine on Exchange and 
InoculateIT on the desktops...

One note related to this. It seems to me that having more than one vendor is as 
important as having multiple layers. If you have three or four layers of 'insert your 
AV vendor here'  products and they miss the boat on some virus, then all of those 
layers are irrelevant.
