scanner will use its own default settings. You may also redefine settings by
using the switch
F=profile_name
in the command line.
To check for viruses you may also load the Daemon program
(see chapter 0). In the beginning, this program can be started from the
command line and later it may be called from the client. When you start the
daemon process for the first time, your command line may look similar to
the following:
./kavdaemon
This command execution will start the daemon process and loading of the
virus-definition databases into the system memory. To start checking in
your home directories, for example, you may use the following command:
./kavdaemon -o{/home}
Daemon inherits all functions of Scanner, but there are some differences in
command line switches that are related to features of the process
(see chapter 6).
To check for viruses in mail messages of the sendmail, Qmail, Postfix and
Exim mail systems you may use Keeper for sendmail, Keeper for Qmail,
Keeper for Postfix and Keeper for Exim respectively. Those programs are
supplied with the network version of
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Sun
Solaris Mail Server
(for details on how to start these programs see
chapter 7).
