Sophos Setup/Configuration on Windows 2003 R2 Questions

admin1 over 14 years ago

Does anyone have experience with installing/configuring Sophos? We have Sophos Enterprise Console ver 4.5.1.0 installed.

Our sever is running 2003 R2, we have DFS volumes that also replicate and we would like to know how people have set up Sophos to scan DFS volumes.

We use DFS but not (no longer) replication as we don't need it so I have no recent experience. But the following might help:

Microsoft's Virus scanning recommendations article only deals with issues caused by scanning and not with the impact of potential subsequent actions (i.e. block or delete). It describes itself as "unrecommended workaround". For or more practical discussion see this TechNet article which is, I think, fairly good considering the complexity of this subject.

I realise this an old thread... but here goes...
We've been running the v7 clients for over a year and just recently upgraded to the v9 clients with the v4.5 Enterprise Consol. The two AD servers are running DFS and this doesn't seem to be an issue.
I will say that Excel DOES seem to have trouble with some files when a user tries to save. But this is cleary NOT a "Sophos on DFS" issue since we've had the problem with Excel 2007 from the very start. (As a matter of fact, I'm STILL trying to resolve that one... LONG before we moved to Sophos).
