I think I'll pick up a copy of their total virus defense so I can at least say that I tried if I get questioned. As far as a per user license thing, I could simply have all the mail goto a mail user and have a program then sort it out and put it in the actual spools, sure I'd be having multiple users, but I think I would be within their license... -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG]On Behalf Of freebsd-questions-local@insignia.com Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2001 7:10 AM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: McAfee VirusScan for FreeBSD On Wed, 5 Dec 2001 15:09:02 -0600, adam@kdcomputers.com ("KD Computers - Adam") wrote: >Currently I'm using McAfee VirusScan for FreeBSD to scan my incoming email, >but how would I go about licensing it?

Any ideas? You will probably find that you need one license per protected user. I considered changing from a per-desktop scheme to just putting McAfee on an Exchange server, and that was definitely licensed that way. I'm fairly sure the same applies to mail gateways. NAI have a fairly "interesting" licensing scheme. It's very easy to find that you are renting the licenses (this happened to me) and if you choose not to renew you get a threatening letter from their legal department warning you to delete all copies and sign a document stating that you have done so.
