Special Forums Cybersecurity Antivirus Programm for Solaris Desktop Post 302171639 by malcqv on Friday 29th of February 2008 05:00:03 AM

An old thread but relevant.
My manager is asking one of my colleagues to install anti-virus on both the Solaris and Linux desktops and maybe even servers. This is something I have never concerned myself with other than a Linux web proxy server many years ago (I used clam).

Some of the Solaris servers do serve out CIFS so I suppose you could argue a use for that. My concern is that other than rootkits (which I am not even sure the a/v would find) would any of you install A/V on Solaris/Linux?

Is Unix/Solaris 10 ready for professional Desktop need?

There is little or no gaming available without the use of emulation or virtualization. There is no support for Xen in Solaris 10, you will have to Nevada to get that which also means no XP apps unless you can get them to run in Wine. It is unlikely that windows only hardware will be supported. (1 Reply)
