About Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus
The next sections discuss other changes that this Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus
release introduces.
Installation and distribution features
Dr Solomon's anti-virus products, including Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus, now
use the Microsoft Windows Installer (MSI), which comes with all Windows
2000 Professional systems. This Setup utility offers a wealth of custom
installation and configuration features that make Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus
rollout across large organizations much easier and more intuitive. To learn
more about how to run custom Setup operations with MSI, see
"Installing Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus"
Administrator's Guide.
This Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus version also comes with complete support for
the Network Associates ePolicy Orchestrator software distribution tool. A
specially packaged Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus version ships with the ePolicy
Orchestrator software, ready for enterprise-wide distribution. You can
distribute Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus, configure it from the ePolicy Orchestrator
console, update that configuration and any program or .DAT files at any time,
and schedule scan operations, all for your entire network user base. To learn
more about using ePolicy Orchestrator software for Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus
distribution and configuration, consult the ePolicy Orchestrator
Administrator's Guide.
This Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus version also includes package description
information for other distribution tools, including Microsoft System
Management Server and Tivoli Systems software management products.
Interface enhancements
This release moves the Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus interface for all supported
platforms solidly into the territory Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus for Windows 95
and Windows 98 pioneered with its v4.0.1 release. This adds extensive
WinGuard scanner configuration options for the Windows NT Workstation
v4.0 and Windows 2000 Professional platforms, while reducing the
complexity of some previous configuration options. Alert Manager server
configuration, for example, moves entirely over to the NetShield product
line—Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus now acts strictly as a configurable client
application.
This release also adds a new Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus control panel, which
functions as a central point from which you can enable and disable all Dr
Solomon's Anti-Virus components. This control panel also lets you set a
ceiling for the number of items you can scan in or exclude from a single
operation, and can set the WinGuard scanner and Dr Solomon's Anti-Virus
control panel to run at startup. Other changes include:
