[Year 12 IPM] OT - Help Please - Anti-Virus Softwarerecommendations?

[Martin, Michael M]

Hi Keith

 

Our school runs symantec with novell and windows xp.  Our Network manager says that this is the best anti virus software for novell.  It is very effective if tightly controlled by the administrators of the network system.  It doesn't affect the network performance.  Hope this is helpful.

Regards

Michael Martin

Please forgive cross-posts.
Hello everyone.
We have an anti-virus software crisis and I would appreciate any advice
possible.
We have been using VET but they are forcing a change on us that is not
compatible so we need to look elsewhere.
Here is the QUESTION posed by my technician:

"Anti virus question to those members of the group that have Novell file
servers with XP workstations.
 What antivirus solution do you have in place with server based updates?
 How efficient is this?
 Does it affect network performance, if not what speed does network run
at?
 Any recomendations for a low grade network?
 Thanks."

Any advice will be most appreciated.
In anticipation, thank you!
Keith
