Additional Packages and Components

Dr.Web Industrial for UNIX File Servers does not require installation of additional packages and OS components (except for the protected server software, see below).

For convenient work with Dr.Web Industrial for UNIX File Servers in the command line, you can enable command auto-completion in your command shell (if disabled).

 

If you encounter any problem with installation of additional packages and components, refer to the documentation of your operating system version.

Disclaimer
 

SpIDer Guard can operate in the enhanced (Paranoid) mode, which blocks access to the files that have not been scanned yet, only via fanotify and providing that an OS kernel is built with the enabled CONFIG_FANOTIFY_ACCESS_PERMISSIONS option.

Supported File Servers

Samba File Service

For integration with Samba file service, the installed and configured file server Samba is required (supported Samba versions 3.6–4.16).

The SpIDer Guard for SMB monitor of Dr.Web Industrial for UNIX File Servers uses a special VFS SMB module for the integration with the Samba server. With the SpIDer Guard for SMB component, several versions of this module are supplied. They are built for various versions of Samba. However, the supplied versions of the VFS SMB module may be incompatible with the version of Samba installed on your file server. It may occur, for example, if your Samba server uses the CLUSTER_SUPPORT option.

If VFS SMB modules are incompatible with your Samba server, the corresponding message is shown during the Dr.Web Industrial for UNIX File Servers installation. In this case, build the VFS SMB module for your Samba server manually (including the compatibility with the CLUSTER_SUPPORT option if necessary).

The procedure of building the VFS SMB module from the supplied source code files is described in the Building the VFS SMB Module section.

Compatibility with Security Subsystems

By default, Dr.Web Industrial for UNIX File Servers does not support SELinux. In addition, Dr.Web Industrial for UNIX File Servers operates in reduced functionality mode in the GNU/Linux systems that use mandatory access models (for example, in systems supplied with the PARSEC mandatory access subsystem that appends different privilege levels to users and files).

If installation of Dr.Web Industrial for UNIX File Servers is required for systems with SELinux (as well as for systems that use mandatory access models). It is necessary to execute additional settings of a security subsystem so that Dr.Web Industrial for UNIX File Servers operates in full functionality mode. For details, refer to the section Configuring Security Subsystems.
