Most of this can be done with Linux as well, but I'm not 100% sure about the AV part.How will I use / setup CentOS to check all traffic coming in & out (HTTP, SMTP, POP3, IMAP, etc) for virusses and clean them? We host both Windows & Linux servers, and I'm not too worried about the Linux servers, but Windows needs a lot of extra protection.ssshhh!!! Don't tell Trend Micro you are scanning for viruses at the gateway ... they don't like that term :-Dhttp://www.vnunet.com/vnunet/news/2219926/breakthrough-trend-micro-patent-barracuda------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________Are you saying I'm not allowed todo this, and will be violating a patent right for building my own network level virus scanner / anti-virus gateway?
