Symantec AV Corporate on Linux

by macgyver.hicks . Updated 21 years, 3 months ago

I’m wanting to set up a Linux file server and AV server. I have to use Symantec AV Corporate 9 or compatible as the AV Update Server since all of my Windows systems have the client version on them. I’m trying this with Xandros Linux and have gotten it to set up the AV software, but it does not allow it to configure for server. My best guess is that since Code Weavers CrossOver Office emulates as Win98/ME, Symantec will configure only as a client. I want to stay away from installing VMWare or similar and running 2 OS’s simultaneously. Is there an NT emulator for Linux? Or, does anyone know a work-around to get SAV 9 to run as a server on Win98/ME (since that is CrossOver’s and Wine’s emulation standard)?
