not allowed to use wine

Hello,

Recently, on-access scanning started mot to allow me to use Windows software. I receive messages for various dll files that are denied access to. I can tun software when I stop on access with sudo /opt/sophos-av/bin/savdctl disable . I have tried in vain to use -exclude.

Any suggestions?

Thanl you in advance.

  • Hello George,

    it's not my team, I'm not Sophos. I'm pretty sure they won't take care of WINE unless someone sends in samples (I have, BTW, no problems accessing the submission page). Labs don't take care of arbitrary applications, it's not their job to make them work.
    Every sample (you can submit several files in a single archive) goes through an automated analysis and triage, those not unambiguously categorised are passed to a technician for further analysis. If necessary a new detection definition is created or an existing one amended. It doesn't hurt and it works. So, please, take a bunch of these DLLs, zip them up (note the 25MB limit) and submit them.

    I submitted as you advised. Let me hope there will be a solution.
