[dac]
agent_enabled = yes
event_mask = "open"
ctl_incl = "/home"
action_av = "scan"
user_config = "esets_dac_spec.cfg"
Once the 'user_config ' file parameter is specified within the [da c] section, the 'esets_da c_spec.cfg ' file must be created in the
ESETS configuration directory. Finally, add the desired scanning rules.
[username]
action_av = "reject"
At the top of the special section, enter the username to which the individual rules will be applied. This configuration will
allow all other users attempting to access the file-system to be processed normally. i.e., all file system objects accessed by other
users will be scanned for infiltrations, except for the user 'userna me' , whose access will be rejected (blocked).

6.3 Samples Submission System

The Samples submission system is an intelligent Threa tSense.Net technology that collects infected objects which have been
detected by advanced heuristics and delivers them to the samples submission system server. All virus samples collected by the
sample submission system will be processed by the ESET virus laboratory and if necessary, added to the ESET virus signature
database.
NOTE: According to our license agreement, by enabling sample submission system you are agreeing to allow the computer
and/or platform on which the esets_daemon is installed to collect data (which may include personal information about you
and/or the user of the computer) and samples of newly detected viruses or other threats and send them to our virus lab. This
feature is turned off by default. All information collected will be used only to analyze new threats and will not be used for any
other purpose.
In order to activate the Samples Submission System, the samples submission system cache must be initialized. This can be
achieved by enabling the 'sa mples_ena bled' option in the [g loba l] section of the ESETS configuration file. To allow for the actual
delivery of samples to the ESET virus laboratory servers, the parameter 'sa mples_send_period' must also be specified in the same
section.
In addition, users can choose to provide the ESET virus laboratory team with supplementary information using the
'sa mples_provider_ma il' and/or 'sa mples_provider_country' configuration options. The information collected using these options
will assist in providing the ESET team with an overview about a given infiltration which may be spreading over the Internet.
For more information on the Samples Submission System, refer to the esets_da emon(8 ) man page.

6.4 Web Interface

The Web Interface allows user-friendly configuration, administration and license management of ESET Security systems. This
module is a separate agent and must be explicitly enabled. To quickly configure the W eb Interfa ce , set the following options in
the ESETS configuration file and restart the ESETS daemon:
[wwwi]
agent_enabled = yes
listen_addr = address
listen_port = port
username = name
password = pass
Replace the text in italics with your own values and direct your browser to 'https://a ddress:port' (note the https). Login with
'userna me/pa ssword' . Basic usage instructions can be found on the help page and technical details about esets_wwwi can be
found on the esets_wwwi(1 ) man page.
The web interface allows you to remotely access the ESETS daemon and deploy it easily. This powerful utility makes it easy to
read and write configuration values.
