[THIN] Re: Best AntiVirus for Citrix

Thank you for that info. I had a whitepaper on eTrust 6.x that talked about this and I had used for 7.x.

 

How has the new 8.x licensing server worked for you? I have a few executives that have company owned desktop computers but are not part of the network. I’m at a loss as to how these computers would make use of a licensing server.

 

Thank you who responded to this topic.

We upgraded to eTrust 8.x and were told by CA to exclude certain directories/files on the Citrix servers from scanning to avoid impacting performance.  I do not know if they recommended the same exceptions for 7.1.  Those exceptions are:

 

x:\Pagefile.sys

X:\program files\citrix

X:\windows\system32\spool

 

Since the upgrade we have not encountered any Citrix specific issues with the product.

I’m just about to purchase a new AntiVirus product. I am running CA eTrust AV 7.1 which is now end of life. I’m running older 2003 servers so I need an AV product that won’t slow the Citrix servers down and is easy to deploy. Could go with the new 8.x version of eTrust but is there anything better? Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,
