I just installed sav, but on-access scanning is still disabled:
/opt/sophos-av/bin/savdstatus -v
Sophos Anti-Virus daemon is active
On-access scanning is not running
I tested it by making an eicar.txt file in Documents dir and immediately when I saved the file, I got Sophos anti-virus alert saying that EICAR-AV-test detected in file ...
How is this possible if on-access scanning is not running?
After that I tried to run on-demand scan
savscan ~/Documents
with default settings but it did NOT notice the eicar.txt. Why is that?
This is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Thank you for your support.
