After the product is successfully installed, all its configuration components  are  stored  in the 

ESETS configuration directory. The directory consists of the following files:

@ETCDIR@

/esets.cfg

This is the most important configuration file, as it controls all major aspects of the product‘s 

functionality. The esets.cfg file is made up of several sections, each of which contains various 

parameters. The  file  contains  one  global  and  several  "agent“  sections,  with  all  section  names 

enclosed in square brackets. Parameters in the global section are used to define configuration 

options  for  the  ESETS  daemon  as  well  as  default  values  for  the  ESETS  scanning  engine 

configuration. Parameters in agent sections are used to define configuration options of modules 

used to intercept various  data  flow  types in the computer and/or its neighborhood, and prepare 

it for scanning. Note that in addition to the various parameters used for system configuration, 

there are also rules governing the organization of the file. For detailed information on the most 

effective  way  to  organize  this  file,  please  refer  to  the  esets.cfg(5)  and  esets_daemon(8)  man 

pages, as well as relevant agents‘ man pages.

@ETCDIR@

/certs

This  directory  is  used  to  store  the  certificates  used  by  the  ESETS  Web  Interface  for 

authentication. Please see the esets_wwwi man page (8) for details. 

@ETCDIR@

/license

This  directory  is  used  to  store  the  product(s)  license  key(s)  you  have  acquired  from  your 

vendor. Note that the ESETS daemon will check only this directory for a valid license key, unless 

the ‘license_dir‘ parameter in the ESETS configuration file is redefined.

@ETCDIR@

/scripts/license_warning_script

If enabled by the ESETS configuration file parameter ‘license_warn_enabled’, this script will be 

executed 30 days (once per day) before product license expiration, sending an email notification 

about the expiration status to the system administrator.

@ETCDIR@

/scripts/daemon_notification_script

If enabled by the ESETS configuration file parameter ‘exec_script‘, this script is executed in the 

event of a detected infiltration by the antivirus system. It is used to send email notification about 

the event to the system administrator.
