Perhaps add a possibilty to add virusscan the samba shares to the tutorial from Small Business Samba Server on Ubuntu?
on access virus scanner and recyle bin for samba. yes this is possible, check out this link this is my work, its not perfect, but you get far with this. /snap 8.0 On-Access virus scanning on samba (samba-clamav) 8.1 Installing ClamAV apt-get install clamav arj unzoo lha clamav-freshclam clamav-daemon Configuring clamav-freshclam : Daemon Choose a close mirror Should clamd be notified after updates? Yes 8.2 get the sources ( samba & samba-vscan ) mkdir /usr/src/sources cd /usr/src/sources apt-get install dpkg-dev apt-get source samba apt-get build-dep samba cd samba-3.0-14a vi source/include/version.h here remove the a from the 14 ( 3.0.14a => 3.0.14 ) ./debian/rules configure-stamp cd source ./make proto cd ../.. wget http://switch.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/openantivirus/samba-vscan-0.3.6 b.tar.bz2 tar xjvf samba-vscan-0.3.6b.tar.bz2 cd samba-vscan-0.3.6b ./configure --with-samba-source=/usr/src/sources/samba-3.0.14a/source make && make install cp clamav/vscan-clamav.conf /etc/samba/samba-vscan-clamav.conf change in the samba-vscan-clamav.conf clamd socket name = /var/run/clamav/clamd.ctl infected spins action = quarantine ( or delete , which I choose.) When I put that lines in my smb.conf file, I can't access the share : vfs object = vscan-clamav vscan-clamav: config-file = /etc/samba/samba-vscan-clamav.conf An example: [public] comment = Public Directory path = /home/public vfs object = vscan-clamav vscan-clamav: config-file = /etc/samba/samba-vscan-clamav.conf !!! BEWARE !!!! if samba upgrade to a higer version you MUST recompile your samba-vscan. set samba to hold for no upgrade. echo packagename hold | dpkg --set-selections set to hold echo packagename install | dpkg --set-selections set to install 9.0 Recycle bin on samba 9.1 Recycle bin configuration configure samba for using the recycle bin. I made my manager happy with this. create a file in /etc/samba and fill it with the options below. /etc/samba/samba-recycle.conf name = .recycle mode = KEEP_DIRECTORIES|VERSIONS|TOUCH maxsize = 0 exclude = *.tmp|*.temp|*.o|*.obj|~$*|*.~??|~*.tmp excludedir = /tmp|/temp|/cache noversions = *.doc|*.xls|*.ppt add this to you share, same as vscan. vfs object = recycle recycle: config-files = /etc/samba/samba-recycle.conf create a recycle bin directorie and hide it for the users. I created .recycle this way ( because of the dot) users don't see this IF.. you don't set you explorer to view hidden files. restart samba and your done. You are ready to use your samba server. greets, Louis
One more step If you are experiencing problems where your samba shares don't show up when the vfs object is enabled, it is most likely it is because there is one more thing you need to to make it work, which was missed out is this howto. cp /usr/src/samba-vscan-0.3.6b/vscan-clamav.so /usr/lib/samba/vfs/
is it also possible to configure an instant virus-scanner? instead of a cron-job? yes this is possible, check out this link (http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2005-December/114817.html) this is my work, its not perfect, but you get far with this. /snap 8.0 On-Access virus scanning on samba (samba-clamav) 8.1 Installing ClamAV apt-get install clamav arj unzoo lha clamav-freshclam clamav-daemon Configuring clamav-freshclam : Daemon Choose a close mirror Should clamd be notified after updates?
