I was told the same thing several years ago. I am running shared folders and had e-mail and files stored there. IBM told me that they were working on a solution. After they discontinued their AV product and moved their users to Norton, they told me that Norton would develop a solution. I would not hold my breath. I set up a station with drive mappings to my AS/400 folders(IFS) and schedule it to automatically scan all drives once a week. I recommend a solution that can read MIME attachments. Also - there are E-mail Antivirus gateways. You can one of these in the path of your email to protect against virus's coming from E-mails. Of course, it would run on an NT box. -----Original Message----- From: owner-midrange-l@midrange.com [mailto:owner-midrange-l@midrange.com]On Behalf Of joberhol@compures.com Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 1999 8:56 AM To: MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com Subject: Re: Notes and Virus Scanning We are not actively running any antivirus software at this time, but we do have requests from multiple customers for that product. I am under the impression that Symantec (Norton) is working on a version for the Domino server. As of this time, I still do not know of a release date. We are trying to get on top of the situation with Symantec, IBM and Lotus, but so far, no luck. Dave Guerrero Senior Consultant/Lotus Notes Computech Resources, Inc.

If so, what do you use? If not, how did you argue against it (if it was requested by someone else)? We run Notes 5.0 and were using a product that ended up bringing the server down a number of times per day. We also run virus software on each desktop, so some argue against running anything on the server. Your thoughts???
