IMHO NAV (and all other virus protection) sucks. We run separate servers... One development server and one domain server... Takes care of needs like this as well as separating those who "need" virus protection from those who know enough not to open untrusted e-mail attachments... keith d. zimmerman, mcsd eagle solutions -----Original Message----- From: Glen Starrett [mailto:grstarrett at cox.net] Sent: Monday, April 14, 2003 2:29 PM To: 'L.

I did tell it to exclude the CVS directories (temp + repos) and I checked the "Check exclusions before scanning" otherwise it *still* scans the file, it just doesn't report anything if it found something. I haven't had any problems yet--but "yet" is the key word. I am backing up the repositories nightly and waiting to see what happens. I am hoping that NAV can run alongside because this server is used for other purposes than just CVS and still needs the protection. Supported interop with NAV would be the highest thing on my "wish list" for CVSNT.

Mind you, I'm not using CVSNT extensively. I merely use it's basic features on a regular basis. On a related note, McAfee and CVSNT does not work well. From my experience with McAfee v6.0 and v7.0, it seems that the following is the case: v6.0 - Skip the install of McAfee Firewall and you can have CVSNT working alongside McAfee Antivirus. v7.0 - This does not work in anyway. Installing just Antivirus, or both crashes CVSNT service on any CVS command. I have no idea what the actual cause of this bug is (I don't have the time to debug it - seems pretty obscure too). But I haven't enjoyed McAfee's incessant need to reboot on virus definition updates so I haven't really been affected by the switch to Norton.
