S C A N N E R
[
switchN]
is the optional switch in the Scanner command line,
[path]
is the optional Sun Solaris path that defines the location to
be checked
[filemasks]
are the optional Sun Solaris file masks that define the
files to be checked for viruses. By default, the program
checks for viruses in all executable files.
Before you start scanning you can define the scanner settings, i.e.
objects to be checked for viruses, actions to be taken regarding
those objects, advanced scanning tools to be used etc. (see
subchapter 5.1). When started, the program automatically loads
settings from defUnix.prf that is supplied with
Kaspersky Anti-Virus
for Sun Solaris Mail Server
. However, if you created a new profile
and specified its name in the
DefaultProfile
line of
AvpUnix.ini
, your
Scanner will load settings from this file. However, if, when started,
the program will find no profile, it will use its default settings. Finally,
settings from the profile may be redefined by available command line
switches.
If you want to load settings from a profile that is different from that defined
in the .ini file, start the program using the command line switch
-F=profile_name
. For a complete list of available command line switches
refer to
Appendix B
.
When starting Scanner from a script file, you can review its exit codes.
Refer to
Appendix B
for a complete list of available exit codes and an
example of their analysis within the script file.
You may start Scanner from the installation diskette. It is advisable that you
create boot diskettes for Sun Solaris and save Kaspersky Anti-Virus for
Sun Solaris Mail Server together with the virus-definition databases on
them (you will need several diskettes). Those diskettes will be useful
restoring your system in the case of virus attack.
When you create a profile for your Scanner on the boot diskettes,
make sure to define
Yes
for the
UseMemoryFiles
parameter (for details
of this parameter see subchapter 5.4.2).
