You need to clarify what you said somewhat. Firstly, do you intend to do local scanning of viruses on the firewall? Do you intend to scan viruses as they pass through the firewall? I suspect it's the latter. There are some commercial products available that act as mail proxies which enforce "content security" as mail passes through. If you want information on that kind of thing email me off-list. Only downside is it runs on NT. :\ I'm unaware of any products which perform virus-scanning of data as it passes through the firewall (on FreeBSD). I think there is one for Solaris and NT (Interscan VirusWall). > > TIA! > > > Fernando P.
