Trend OfficeScan
Trend OfficeScan
I need some help on getting Trend OfficeScan to work on Linux. I installed Wine which is working I believe. I am using Centos 5.10 x64. When I go through the process of the install it seems like it installs just fine but I see strange messages while it installs. The next thing is after the install window disappears i try to see if there is any communication to a central server but there is none. I wanted to know if I can get any assistance with this or pointed in the right direction.
Re: Trend OfficeScan
Blue Ace Never going to work. Trend OfficeScan is going to use features wine will never support. Use a Linux native anti-virus is the correct answer and that is not Trend OfficeScan.
List of missing fanotify the Linux system for monitoring file system changes is not used by or connected to by wine. Next network stack of Linux is off limits to wine applications. Memory layout of Wine is in fact different to windows. So result no windows based anti-viruses results are trust-able inside wine even if they install and appear to run.

Re: Trend OfficeScan
Thank you for responding. I am just still wondering if it is possible though but, you have cleared up the question I was asking. Do you think in the near future that support for Trend Officescan will be implemented in wine?

Blue Ace the answer is 100 percent not going to happen in the near future and most likely will not happen ever.
fanotify in Linux is different to windows file-system monitoring anti-virus use http://www.lanedo.com/2013/filesystem-m ... ux-kernel/. Insanely different fanotify is far less complex of a interface. Same with network hooking. Both require administration privilege on Linux and due to the risks running as root wine will most likely never connect to them. Problem is connecting them to wine also will require a lot of maintaining fake states. Fake states can create very strange bugs.
Also Linux fanotify allows more than 1 anti-virus to be installed and operating at the same time and not fighting same with the network stack. You are many times better off using the native OS solutions.
