CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION
Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.7 for Novell NetWare (hereafter, referred to as Kaspersky Anti-Virus) is an anti-virus application designed to protect LAN file servers running the Novell NetWare operating system.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus has the following functions:
- Real-time server protection - scans all started or modified files, then disinfects and/or deletes infected objects.
- On-demand server scan - successively scans the files on the server on administrator's demand or according to a schedule with user-specified frequency. The anti-virus application can disinfect and/or delete infected objects.
- Anti-virus database updating – updates the anti-virus database used to search for viruses, and distributes the downloaded updates to other servers on the Novell NetWare network. The database can be scheduled for automatic updating. The application will download the latest updates via the Internet or the LAN and distribute these among the specified servers. Prior to updating the anti-virus database on a server the program will back up all the files being modified, thus making it possible to revert to the latest update if necessary.
- Quarantine - moves infected or suspicious files to a special storage location called 'quarantine'. Quarantined files can be analyzed by the administrator or sent to the Kaspersky Lab for examination.
Event log keeping - creates detailed logs and writes the results of the on-demand server scanning, real-time protection and anti-virus database updating. The logs can be viewed and printed. - Backup - saves backup copies of any suspicious or infected files prior to disinfecting or deleting them. This makes it possible to restore the data in the event of disinfection, deletion failure or error.
- Notification - notifies users and administrators of finished scans, warns about found dangerous objects using Novell NetWare network and by email.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus is based on the client-server architecture. Its server part consists of two modules: Kaspersky Anti-Virus, dealing with anti-virus functionality, and Anti-virus database updating, responsible for updating the anti-virus database and application modules. The client part consists of Snapin for ConsoleOne, a web module, and a module for managing the application using Kaspersky Administration Kit that provide the user interface for the
application administrative services and enable the user to install the application, set it up, and manage the server part.

CHAPTER 2. KASPERSKY ANTI-VIRUS 5.7 FOR NOVELL NETWARE BASICS
2.1. Deploying protection on servers
Building of the file server antiviral protection system using Kaspersky Anti-Virus must begin with installation of Snapin for Novell ConsoleOne and/or the web management module1.
Snapin for ConsoleOne is installed from the distribution package on one of the workstations running Windows or on a NetWare server, where the Novell ConsoleOne network administration utility is installed.
The Web management module is also installed from the distribution package on a Windows workstation or on a NetWare server with the installed Tomcat servlet container.
Snapin for ConsoleOne and the Web module can be installed on only one of the computers as they provide centralized access to all network resources from a single administrator workbench. However, if in the event that several administrators are working jointly, the management modules can be installed on each of their computers.
If none of the modules is installed, the anti-virus functionality of the application will be limited to real-time server protection mode with default settings. Scanning will be launched automatically when starting the server and will be stopped when the server is shut down. Stopping or starting the scanning forcibly will only be possible from the command line by closing or starting the application.
The next step is installation of the server side application on all the NetWare file servers across the network. Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Anti-virus database updating modules can be installed on the server either using the distribution package or without it, by using the Snapin for ConsoleOne or web interface.
2.2. Basic concepts and operation scheme of the application
The antiviral protection system is based on creation of tasks, which maximize the basic functionality of the application.
A task is a specific action performed by the application. Tasks are divided into several types according to their function. Kaspersky Anti-Virus uses three types of task:
Real-time protection
- Scan on-demand
- Anti-virus database updating
The tasks can be started according to a schedule, manually, or upon an application event. Each task has a corresponding set of parameters that specify how the application will work when running this task.
The set of application parameters common for all its task types makes up the application settings. The application parameters specific to each type of task make up task settings.
Because of the distributed architecture of Kaspersky Anti-Virus, obtaining access to its anti-virus functionality requires starting its server part - Kaspersky AntiVirus or Anti-virus database updating module - to carry out the update. Updating can be started using the Snapin for Novell ConsoleOne, the web module (see section 4.4 on page 30), or the Kaspersky Administration Kit management module.
In order to initiate execution of the required function, the user must set the application parameters (see section 4.5 on page 33), create the respective task (see section 5.1 on page 37 and section 6.1 on page 49), set its generic parameters (see section 5.2 on page 38 and section 6.2 on page 51) and run this task (see section 5.4 on page 46 and section 6.4 on page 57). If the scheduled start mode or start on event mode is selected, the task is launched automatically.
Access to the application administrative functions, and creation and running of the tasks is granted to the users2 who possess administrator rights. The user rights are checked based on their authentication in the Novell Netware network.
2.3. Maintaining the antiviral protection system
Maintenance of the server antiviral protection system involves the following processes:
- Reception and processing of virus detection messages
- Regular checking of anti-virus database update reception and distribution reports
An important factor that determines the quality of infected object detection by anti-virus programs is completeness of their anti-virus database. The procedure of searching and removing viruses is based on the records of the anti-virus database, which stores descriptions of every virus known at the time along with methods of cleaning objects infected by them.
Kaspersky Lab adds descriptions of new viruses to the anti-virus database daily and places the updates on the Internet for downloading. It is recommended to download these updates daily.
The anti-virus database versions must be the same on all the protected servers. In order to save traffic, the update process can be set up in such a way that the anti-virus database updates will be downloaded from the Internet by the "main" server. All the other servers will receive the updates from the shared folder located on the "main" server.
A server can receive updates only from the server located in the same NDS tree. Therefore, it is necessary to create at least one server responsible for updating the anti-virus database in every NDS tree whose servers are to be protected from viruses.
CHAPTER 3. INSTALLING, UPDATING, AND UNINSTALLING THE APPLICATION
Prior to installing Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Novell NetWare please make sure that hardware and software of the server/workstation meets the program's requirements. The minimal possible requirements are specified in section 1.1 on page 8.

Figure 6. Specify address and port number of the administration server
3.2. Deploying the application across the network
If the Snapin for Novell ConsoleOne and/or the Web management module are already installed on a computer (server or workstation), then the server-side application can be installed on other servers without using the distribution package. This is done via Novell ConsoleOne or the web module using the Install Kaspersky Anti-Virus shortcut menu command of the NDS console tree.
You can install the server-side application of Kaspersky Anti-Virus on both a server selected in the console tree and several servers at the same time.
To install Kaspersky Anti-Virus on a group of servers:
Select a node in the console tree that contains the required servers and right click your mouse button to open the shortcut menu. In the shortcut menu, select the Install Kaspersky Anti-Virus option. If this option is unavailable in the shortcut menu, Kaspersky Anti-Virus is already installed on all the servers of this node.
During installation, the program will ask you to select the servers on which you want to install Kaspersky Anti-Virus and specify the path to the license key file (see Figure 7). The list of servers available for installation includes only those servers on which Kaspersky Anti-Virus has not been installed. The license key file is selected in the same manner as installation from the distribution package (see section 3.1 on page. 14).

Figure 7. Installing the application on a group of servers via Novell ConsoleOne
In order to make the server-side part of the application launch automatically at the server start, update the AUTOEXEC.NCF file by checking the Modify the autoexec.ncf file automatically box.
To install Kaspersky Anti-Virus on one server:
Select a node in the console tree that contains the required servers, open the shortcut menu, and select the Install Kaspersky Anti-Virus option. During installation the program will ask you to specify the directory in which to install the server-side application and the path to the license key file. You will also be prompted to update the AUTOEXEC.NCF configuration file to make the server-side part of the application launch at the server's start (similarly to These operations are the same as those described above (see section 3.1 on page. 14).
3.3. Installing application on cluster volume
If the Snapin for Novell ConsoleOne and/or the Web management module are already installed on a computer (server or workstation), then Kaspersky Anti - virus can be installed on cluster volume without using the distribution package.
To install Kaspersky Anti-Virus on cluster volume:
- Run the Web management module or Snapin for Novell ConsoleOne.
- Select a node in the console tree that contains the required cluster volume, open the shortcut menu, and select the Install Kaspersky Anti-Virus option.
- During installation the program will ask you to specify the directory in which to install the server-side application (SYS/KLAB by default) and the path to the license key file. You can install the license key via ConsoleOne after the application is installed.
After installing the application on cluster volume you are not recommended to modify AUTOEXEC.NCF. This can lead to application failure!
Click Install button to install the application.
The install process will start, it is similar to one described in 3.1.1 on page. 16
To enable automatic load of server scripts, add the following lines to the beginning of startup scripts:
SEARCH ADD SYS:/KLAB
LOAD KLABAV.NLM
KAVSCH5.NCF
To enable automatic shut down of server scripts on system shut down, add the following lines to the ending of shutdown scripts:
UNLOAD KLABAV.NLM
UKAVSCH5.NCF
3.4. Uninstalling the application
Uninstalling Kaspersky Anti-Virus means removing the application's server part from the file servers and removing its client part from the computers on which it was installed (see section 3.1 on page. 14).
The application's server part can be uninstalled from the file server selected in the NDS structure via Novell ConsoleOne using the Remove Kaspersky AntiVirus command in the shortcut menu of the console tree. You will be asked to confirm that you really want to uninstall the application. After the last installed server part is removed, the NDS structure will be cleared - the Kaspersky AntiVirus 5 class and all its attributes will be deleted.
To uninstall the client part, Snapin for ConsoleOne and/or Web management module, it must be removed from the computer on which it is installed (see section 3.1 on page 14) using the available file manager. The following files and directories must be removed from the Novell ConsoleOne installation directory:
For the Snapin for ConsoleOne:
- kav500.jar file from the snapins\mach directory;
- kavResource500.jar file from the resources\mach directory;
InstallAVP subdirectory from the jre directory;
KasperskyAV subdirectory from the help directory
For the Web management module:
- For version tomcat 33: the tomcat\33\webapps\ikav directory and the ikav.war file, the tomcat\33\work\default directory;
- For version tomcat 4: the tomcat\4\work\standalone\localhost\ikAV directory.
3.5. Updating the application version
In order to upgrade Kaspersky Anti-Virus from version 4.0 to 5.7, you must first uninstall version 4.0 and install the new version, according to the instructions contained in this document (see section 3.1 on page 14).
To update the application from version 5.x to version 5.7, do the following:
- Install one of the management modules, either for ConsoleOne on the web module:
- In the Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 namespace, select a server on which you want to upgrade the application version;
3. Open the shortcut menu and select the Update Kaspersky Anti-Virus option.
After this, all previous settings will be saved and the current license key will be applied to the new version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Novell NetWare supports the anti-virus database formats used in the previous versions of the program.
After software update from version 5.x to 5.7 on the server, you will have to update the program on all servers included into the list for distribution of updates. Otherwise updating of the anti-virus databases on those computers will become impossible.
CHAPTER 4. SETTING UP THE APPLICATION
4.1. Starting the application
The application is launched, set up, and controlled using Novell ConsoleOne, the web interface, or Kaspersky Administration Kit.
To start the application from ConsoleOne
Run this utility on your computer.
- To launch the application from the web interface:
- Open your web browser.
- In the address bar, enter the following address:
http://Server IP Address/iKAV
where:
Server IP address is the address of the server on which the Web management module is installed;

Attention! Commands in tomcat version 4 are case sensitive.
- On the authorization page that opens, enter the required data.
To launch the application using Kaspersky Administration Kit
Start Kaspersky Administration Kit on your computer.
4.2. Application interface
Hereinafter, all instructions and explanations are based on the interface of Sapin for ConsoleOne. All differences between the Sapin for ConsoleOne and Web module will be discussed separately. See Chapter 9 on page 78 about managing Kaspersky Anti-Virus using Kaspersky Administration Kit.
The main window of Novell ConsoleOne contains the menu, the control panel, the review panel and the results panel (see Figure 8). The menu provides the functions for controlling files and windows, and provides access to the help system. The set of buttons on the tools panel provides direct access to some of the most frequently used main menu items. The review panel displays, in a console tree form, the name spaces installed in Novell ConsoleOne. The result panel displays the list of elements of the object selected in the tree.
After installing the Snapin for Novell ConsoleOne, a Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space is created in the console tree. It is marked by the icon.

Figure 8. Novell ConsoleOne window after installation of the Snapin
This space contains the list of NDS trees with which connection is established. Each tree is marked with the icon and displays the hierarchy of its servers with an indication of their context. The servers that have no server part installed are marked with the icon.
The servers on which the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module is installed are marked with the symbol and contain the list of task types of Kaspersky Anti-Virus:
Real-Time Protection
On-Demand Scan
Anti-Virus Database Updating
- In turn, for each task type a list of created tasks is provided. If the task is being executed its icon is colored, otherwise it is black and white.
The umbrella icon becomes gray if Kaspersky Anti-Virus module is not running on the server. When the module is started, this icon becomes green.
- Each object category in the Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space has its own shortcut menu. In addition to Novell ConsoleOne standard menu commands, it contains several others that can be used for setting up and controlling the application. The list of objects and their respective shortcut menu commands are shown in the table below.

4.3. Default protection of the server
Antiviral protection of the server begins immediately after installing Kaspersky Anti-Virus, upon launching the program on the server for the first time.
As a result of the installation, two tasks are created on the server: a real-time protection task named Real-Time Protection, and an on-demand scan task named On Demand Scan.
The Real-Time Protection task starts automatically together with the server part of the program. For a more detailed check of the server the administrator can run the On-Demand Scan task.
The Real-Time Protection and On-Demand Scan tasks are created automatically with the optimal default settings recommended by Kaspersky Lab's experts.
The Real-Time Protection task runs with the following settings:
Start at the Kaspersky Anti-Virus start.
- Scan all the volumes of the server.
- All the files that can potentially be infected are to be analyzed when they are opened for reading, writing, and execution.
Use heuristic code analyzer.
- Do not scan:
- The directory containing application event log files.
-
Archives and mail format files.
-
Upon detection of an infected object the application attempts to disinfect it. If disinfection is impossible it outputs an appropriate message to the report.
-
If a suspicious object is detected, the application places it under quarantine.
The On-demand Scan task can be started with the following settings:
- Scan all volumes of the server.
- Scan all files.
- Scan archives and packed files, mail files in text format, and mail databases.
Use the heuristic code analyzer. - Upon detection of an infected object the application attempts to disinfect it. If disinfection is impossible it outputs an appropriate message to the report.
- If a suspicious object is detected, the application places it under quarantine.
Use heuristic code analyzer.
The above settings are also applied when the administrator creates a task using the Default template.
4.4. Starting/stopping the application on the server
The server part of Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Anti-virus database updating modules is started and stopped on the server from a workstation or a server on which the Snapin for Novell ConsoleOne or the web management module is installed.
The user can start/stop the modules using the shortcut menu in the left panel of Novell ConsoleOne window.
In order to start the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module on the server,
select the required server in Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space in the console tree. Open the shortcut menu and select the Load Kaspersky Anti-Virus option.
This will initiate checking of whether the number of running modules of Kaspersky Anti-Virus matches the number of registered license agreements. If the user attempts to run a module in excess of the number allowed by the registered license agreements or such an agreement is not registered at all, a warning will be displayed on the respective server and the module will not start.
If the numbers match, the application kernel – the KAV.NLM module, the antiviral engine – KAVSCAN.NLM and the anti-virus database will be loaded to the server's memory. The program kernel controls the antiviral functions of the application, while the antiviral engine scans files for viruses. The antiviral engine is loaded to the protected address space. More than one antiviral engine may be running at the same time. The number of concurrently executed file scan requests depends upon the number of simultaneously running copies of the antiviral engine. By default, there are two copies running at the same time. The user can change this value in the application settings on the Advanced tab (see section A.3 on page 115), or load additional antiviral engine copies manually from the server command line (see below).
As a result, Kaspersky Anti-Virus module will be started on the server selected in the console tree. After the module starts, the real-time scanning and scan on demand tasks will be started if they are configured to run at application startup on the server.
After the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module is started on the server, separate screens display general statistical information on the module operation and individual information on every active task. The first screen is created when the module is started; it contains information about the application and statistical information regarding the module execution (see Figure 9). When a server scanning task is launched, a new screen is created. The screen name matches that of the task and it displays the task settings and its execution statistics (see Figure 10). After the task is completed the screen is removed.

Figure 9. Server screen when the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module is started

Figure 10. Server screen during execution of the real-time protection task
Similar information is represented in the results pane when the user selects the server running the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module in the console tree (see Figure 8).
To stop the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module on the server:
Select the required server in Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space in the console tree. Open the shortcut menu and select the Unload Kaspersky Anti-Virus command.
Moreover, you can start / stop the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module on the General tab in the application parameters setup window using the Load Kaspersky AntiVirus / Unload Kaspersky Anti-Virus buttons (see section A.1 on page 112).
The web interface has no General tab. To start / stop the application through the web interface, select the Load / Unload Kaspersky Anti-Virus options in the shortcut menu. To open the shortcut menu, click your right mouse button on the server name in the NDS tree.
To start/stop the Anti-virus database updating module on the server:
Select the required server in the Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space in the console tree. Select the Anti-Virus Database Updates task type. Call the shortcut menu and run the Load / Unload anti-virus database updating module command.
As a result, the Anti-virus database updating module will be started / stopped on the server selected in the console tree.
You can start / stop the Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Anti-virus database updating modules, and load / unload additional antiviral engines directly from the server command line using the following commands:
- LOAD SYS:\KAV\KAV.NLM - start Kaspersky Anti-Virus module
- KAVSCH5/.NCF - start Anti-virus database updating module
- UNLOAD KAV.NLM - stop Kaspersky Anti-Virus module
UKAVSCH5.NCF - stop Anti-virus database updating module - LOAD ADDRESS SPASE KAV(N) RESTART SYS:KAV\KAVSCAN.NLM - load additional N^th antiviral engine
- UNLOAD ADDRESS SPASE=KAV(N) - unload additional N^th anti-viral engine.
4.5. Setting up the application
After installation, Kaspersky Anti-Virus begins working with the minimal number of settings, most of which are set by default.
We recommend that after starting the application you familiarize yourself with its options and, if necessary, change the settings as required. These parameters are common for all the task types of this server and cannot be changed at the moment of creating a task.
The application is set up from a workstation or a server on which the Snapin for Novell ConsoleOne or the Web management module is installed. Individual windows are used for each server. This operation can be carried out regardless of whether the application is running on the server or not.
To open the application setup window,
select the required server in Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space in the console tree. Open the shortcut menu and select the Properties... item.

On the General tab (see Figure 11) you can view general information about the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module, start/stop the program on the server, or renew the license agreement (for more details please refer to section A.1 on page 112).
This tab is unavailable in the Web management module. You can view this information (except for registering the license key and unloading Kaspersky AntiVirus) on the server information page displayed in the left pane when a specific server is selected in the console tree.
The Folders tab displays information regarding the location of the following directories used by the application (for more details please refer to section A.2 on page 113):
- The directory in which the current and the previous versions of the antivirus database are stored.
- Quarantine directories for infected files and suspicious objects.
Work directory for storing temporary files. - The directory for storing anti-virus database updates.
On the Advanced tab the user can specify the parameters of connection between the Snapin for ConsoleOne and the server on which the module of Kaspersky Anti-Virus being set up is installed, the parameters of connection with the anti-virus database update server, allowable server's resources usage for the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module, and the number of file scan requests simultaneously processed by the server (the number of concurrently scanned connections) (for more details please refer to section A.3 on page 115).
On the E-mail notification tab you must specify the parameters of connection between the Snapin for ConsoleOne and the mail server. These parameters will be used for sending e-mail notifications and providing sender address. As a sender address, use an email address registered on your mail server (for more details, refer to section A.4 on page 116).
The Schedule tab displays a complete schedule of unattended startups for all the tasks created for the server. The tasks are viewed by their type. The user can choose to view either the server scanning tasks startup schedule (both scan by demand and real-time protection), or the update tasks. The user can change any of the elements of the schedule (for more details please refer to section A.4 on page 116).
The Task tab displays a full list of the tasks created for the server. The tasks are viewed by their type. The user can choose to review either the server scanning tasks (both scan by demand and Real-Time Protection), or the updating tasks. You can change the settings for any task, delete tasks, create new ones, and review the log with the results of any task execution. In addition you can carry out batch setup of the task parameters (for more details please refer to section A.6 on page 120).
CHAPTER 5. UPDATING THE ANTI-VIRUS DATABASE
The procedure of searching out and removing viruses is based on the records of the anti-virus database, which contains descriptions of every virus known at the time, along with methods of cleaning the files infected by them.
Keeping the database up-to-date is of the utmost importance since new viruses appear every day. We recommend that you update the anti-virus database immediately after installing the application since the database included in the distribution package will be outdated from the moment you install the program. In Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.6 for Novell NetWare, the anti-virus database is updated by creating and running the update tasks.
The Anti-virus database updating module deals with database updating. It is included in the application's server part. When executing the update task the server connects to the Internet or to a shared directory at the scheduled time, downloads the anti-virus database updates, and saves them in a special directory. Then the updates are distributed to the servers included in the mailing list and saved in the directories for storing the used anti-virus database. Backup copies of all the updated objects are created.
Prior to updating the anti-virus database, the updater automatically creates a backup copy of all data from the directory containing received updates. The copy will be placed in the special Backup directory so that the last update can be rolled back, if necessary.
To do this, the user must copy the anti-virus database from the back-up directory (the default location is SYS:\KAV\BASES\BACKUP) to the current database location (the default directory is SYS:\KAV\BASES)
To ensure that the server that executes the update task updates its own antivirus database it must be included in the mailing list along with the other servers.
To ensure the server is able to save the anti-virus database in the directories of the servers it updates, it must have access rights for the file systems of these servers.
All the tasks can be started either manually at the user's (administrator's) request, or using the scheduler. The task scheduler allows tasks to be started at any desired time and also allows the duration of the task execution to be specified. Executing the tasks requires Kaspersky Anti-Virus or Anti-virus database updating module to be running on the server.
After the tasks are completed, the user can review the anti-virus database update log.
5.1. Creating an update task
To create a new task for updating the anti-virus database on the server, do the following:
- In the Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space in the console tree select the server which will execute the anti-virus database update.
- Expand the task types list and select Anti-virus Database Updates.
- Open the shortcut menu and select the Create the task item.
-
The Create Task dialog window (see Figure 12) will display the following information about the task to be created:
-
Task name - the name of the task, which will be used to represent it in the list of created tasks of this type. If necessary, enter the name manually. It must be unique within this server.
- Task type - the type of task. The set value is Anti-Virus Database Updates, and it is detected automatically depending on your selection.
-
Template - the template for creating the task. You can create tasks by example, selecting a previously created task from the list as a template. In this case, the parameter values set for the new task will be exactly the same as those set in the template task. To create a task with the default parameters use the Default template.
-
When you have finished making changes, click on the OK button.
As a result, the Anti-Virus Database Updates task will be assigned to the selected server. The name of this new task specified in the Task name field will appear in the list of tasks assigned to this server. After this, you must set the task parameters.
The task can be created regardless of whether the Anti-virus database updating module is running on the server or not.

Figure 12. Creating the anti-virus database update task
A task can also be created using the application setup window Kaspersky AntiVirus on
To create a new update task in the application setup window, do the following:

First of all you need to create a list of servers to which the notifications will be sent during execution of the task. The list is created on the Recipients tab using the buttons Add and Delete (see Figure 13). After that, you should check if the server you create the task for has the rights to access the file systems of the servers you have specified. If there is a 'no' value in the Rights column in the
mailing list table, it means there are no rights for the respective server. The rights can be granted using the Add rights button (for more details please refer to section B.1.1 on page 122).
After that switch to the Updating source tab and set the update receiving parameters: (for more details please refer to section B.1.2 on page 124):
- Updating source - from the Internet, LAN resources, or using Kaspersky Administration Kit. If you update the database via the Internet, the dialog box will display a list of HTTP and FTP servers of Kaspersky Lab. If you push updates from a network resource, a list of shared directories will be displayed. If you select Kaspersky Administration Kit as an updating source, the anti-virus database will be updated from the Administration Server of Kaspersky Administration Kit.
In case of disconnection from the main source of updates, three more attempts will be made within the 15-minute interval (the next attempt is made in the event that the previous connection fails). Using the Schedule tab you can change the number of repeated attempts to connect with the source, and the interval. During each attempt to connect, the list of update source addresses is used from the beginning (the main address). The addresses are tried in sequence until the connection is established or the list of addresses is exhausted.
- Updates copying mode - specifies what files will be downloaded from the update source; all the anti-virus databases available from the source or only the new and changed ones.
If you have selected an Internet server as a source of the updates and plan to use a proxy server to connect to the ISP, you will have to set up its parameters on the Proxy tab (for more details please refer to section B.1.4 on page 131).
Then go to the Schedule tab and schedule the unattended start of the task and set the reconnection parameters in the event of disconnection during the updates downloading (for more details please refer to section B.1.5 on page 133).
On the Event log tab you can specify the name and the location of the log file, which will contain detailed information about the results of the task execution. In addition, you can set the log file size and specify the events to be logged (for more details please refer to section B.1.3 on page 129).
On the E-mail notification tab, you can enable notifications about task completion for a specified group of users. The program uses the mail system installed in the network to deliver its notifications.

CHAPTER 6. SCANNING THE SERVER FOR VIRUSES
The server can be scanned for viruses by creating and running two types of task:
Real-Time Protection
- On-Demand Scan
The Real-Time Protection task is unattended real-time scanning ('on-the-fly' scanning) of all the files on the server accessed by other workstations and servers. The files are scanned prior to their opening/starting, thus preventing infected files from being started or copied. In addition, the files are scanned immediately after they are modified. Only one task of the server's Real-Time Protection can be executed at a time. It can be set up to be started and stopped simultaneously with Kaspersky Anti-Virus module startup and shut down on the server.
A Real-Time Protection task running on the server slows down its performance slightly. Therefore, it is not recommended to enable archive unpacking mechanism for this type of task.
During scanning on demand, the program scans the directory tree of the selected volumes on the server and virus checks the files specified in the settings. This type of task is intended for scheduled inspections of the server. More than one scanning task with different settings can be executed at the same time.
All the tasks can be started either manually or automatically, using the scheduler. The scheduler allows tasks to be started either according to the schedule or upon an event (e.g. after an application start). You can also set the duration of task execution.
If, during scanning the server (as part of Real-Time Protection or on demand), the program detects infected or suspicious files (detected using the heuristic code analyzer) it will undertake actions specified by the administrator in the task settings.
After the tasks are completed, the user can review the server scanning log.
6.1. Creating tasks for Real-Time Protection and On-Demand Scan
In order to create a new Real-Time Protection / On-demand Scan task for the server, do the following:
- In the Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space in the console tree select the server you wish to scan.
- Expand the task types list and select On-Demand Scan / Real-Time Protection.
- Open the shortcut menu and select the Create task item.
-
The Create Task dialog box (see Figure 20) displays the following information about the task to be created:
-
Task name - the name of the task. This name will be used to represent the task in the list of created tasks of this type. If necessary, enter the name manually. It must be unique within this server.
- Task type - the type of the task. The set value is Real-Time Protection / On-Demand Scan. It is detected automatically based on your selection.
-
Template – the template for task creation. You can create tasks by example, by selecting a previously created task from the list as a template. In this case the parameter values set for the new task will be exactly the same as those set in the template task. To create a task with the default parameters use the Default template.
-
When you have finished making changes, click the OK button.
As a result, the list of tasks of the server you have selected will have a new element. Its name is the one you have specified in the Task name field. Now you must set the task parameters.
A task can be created regardless of whether the program is running on the server or not.

CHAPTER 7. GENERATING AND VIEWING LOGS, RECEIVING NOTIFICATIONS
All the events that take place during execution of the tasks are logged and the information about them is saved in the log file. This version of Kaspersky AntiVirus is capable of working with two log formats: text and XML.
Text format is the traditional type, providing the opportunity to record and view task execution results.
The XML format, apart from having the features of the text format, has a number of extra capabilities. The information recorded in XML logs can be filtered and sorted using various criteria. In addition, it is possible to merge different task logs and obtain summarized results. The above mentioned functions are provided by a number of auxiliary files located in the View directory nested in the Log.
In the event that the View directory is deleted or moved, the functions of filtering, sorting, searching or merging the log data become unavailable.
To view any journals, use the Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.
Viewing the xml format log is only possible if Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 is installed on your computer.
By default a separate log file is created for each task. The log file is located in the Log directory, which is created during the installation of the application in the installation directory of the server along with other auxiliary directories. txt-files are saved in the root of this directory, while xml log files are saved in the nested XML directory. To assist in viewing the XML logs auxiliary htm-files are created, which are also stored in the root of the Log directory.
The user can view the log via the computer file system or using the Snapin for ConsoleOne or the web module (if the Novell NetWare client is installed on the local computer).
The log can only be deleted by means of removing the respective files from the XML and Log directories.
The log keeping parameters and the information to be recorded can be set during adjustment of the respective task using the Event log tab (for more details please refer to section B.1.3 on page 129 and section B.2.3 on page146).
The log keeping system provides the administrator with quick, convenient and unified access to the task execution results.
7.1. Viewing the anti-virus database updating results
In order to view the updating task results log, do the following:
- In the Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5 name space in the console tree select the server on which the desired task was executed.

CHAPTER 8. LICENSE
MANAGEMENT
8.1. Licensing policy
When purchasing Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Novell NetWare you conclude a license agreement with Kaspersky Lab, based on which you are granted the right to use this software on one or more computers for one year after installing it.
During the license period you are provided with the following opportunities:
- To use the anti-virus functionality of the application.
To update the anti-virus database.
To update the versions of the application. - To seek consultations on questions concerning the installation, setting up and operation of the application. The consultations can be provided on the telephone or by e-mail.
- To send any infected and suspicious objects detected to Kaspersky Lab for analysis.
The application detects the availability of the license agreement and ascertains its validity period using the license key – an integral part of any product produced by Kaspersky Lab. The application may have only one valid license key. It contains the limitations set for the operation of Kaspersky Anti-Virus. These limitations can be checked by special procedures built into the application. You can install the application and the license key on as many Novell-servers in the network as you wish, but copies above the number allowed by the license key will be inoperative.
In the event of violation of the limitations set by the license agreement, Kaspersky Lab may cancel the agreement unilaterally. In such a case, the license key number is included in the cancelled keys list, the so-called "black list". Having detected its key in the "black list", the application terminates the license key and notifies the user that the license agreement has been cancelled by Kaspersky Lab.
In the event that the user attempts to interfere in the license canceling procedure (e.g. removes the "black list" file) the application notifies the user that the license agreement has been violated and switches to the 'No features' mode until the interference effects are eliminated.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus will notify you about the license expiration two weeks prior to the expiration date. A reminder message will contain information about the expiration date of the current license key (see Figure 33).

CHAPTER 9. MANAGING KASPERSKY ANTI-VIRUS USING KASPERSKY ADMINISTRATION KIT
Kaspersky Administration Kit is a system for centralized management of antivirus security system based on the applications included into the Kaspersky Anti-Virus Business Optimal suite.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Novell NetWare is one of Kaspersky Lab applications, which can be managed through either the application interface (as described in the earlier chapters) or using Kaspersky Administration Kit (if your computer is a member of the system of remote centralized management).

Figure 37. The Administration Console of Kaspersky Administration Kit
To manage the application through Kaspersky Administration Kit, the administrator creates and configures policies, tasks, and application settings. Protection is provided based on these settings.
Centralized management is provided by grouping several computers together and managing their settings through group policies.
A policy is a set of Kaspersky Anti-Virus settings defined at the group level of the logical network.
Using policies, the administrator can fully manage anti-virus protection because policies include both Kaspersky Anti-Virus settings and task settings (except only the settings that should take effect at task startup, for example, task schedule settings).
A policy might also limit or prohibit changes of task or applications settings. The administrator can apply these limits from either the local ConsoleOne interface, web interface, or Kaspersky Administration Kit interface.
A task is a named action performed by the application. According to functionality, tasks are divided into the following types:
Real-time protection task;
- On-demand scan task;
- Database updating task;
Install license key task.
Every task has own task settings, which are settings of Kaspersky Anti-Virus used to perform the task.
Application settings are additional settings of Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
9.1. Managing policies
This section describes how to create and configure a policy for Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Novell Netware.
9.1.1. Creating a policy
To create a policy, do the following:
- In the Groups node of the console tree, select a group of computers to which you want to apply the new policy.
- Right-click the Policies node inside the selected group and choose Create Policy from the shortcut menu. You will see a dialog box for creating a new policy.
Policies are created using a Microsoft Windows wizard in several steps. To move to a next step or to a previous step, use the Next and Back buttons. To finish creating a policy, click Finish at the last step. To exit the wizard, click Cancel at any step.
At any step during creation of a new policy, you can lock policy settings from changes by clicking the icon. If the lock icon is closed, only the settings of the policy you are creating now will take effect on client computers (if the policy is applied to them).
1. Specifying general information about the policy
The first step of the New Policy wizard is an introductory step. In the first dialog box, specify the name of the policy (Name field) and in the second dialog box, select the Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Novell NetWare application from the Application name drop-down list. To enable the policy immediately after its creation, select the Enable policy checkbox.
2. Specifying CPU usage settings
At this step, you can specify how much of the server CPU resources can be consumed by Kaspersky Anti-Virus. The lower the CPU usage, the slower Kaspersky Anti-Virus works when executing the on-demand scan task.
You can also specify the number of antiviral engine copies concurrently loaded when the Kaspersky Anti-Virus module is started on the server. This value defines the number of files that can be scanned for viruses simultaneously. Using this option, you can increase the speed of anti-virus scans.
In the CPU usage settings dialog box (see Fig. 38), you can select the level of CPU usage and define the number of anti-virus kernel copies (see section A.3 on page 115).

Figure 38. Specifying CPU usage
3. Selecting updating source
At this step, you can specify the database updating source and connection settings. As an update source, you can select either Kaspersky Administration Kit or a Kaspersky Lab update server.
In the Updating source dialog box (see Fig. 39), select a source from which to retrieve database updates. If an FTP- or HTTP-server of Kaspersky Lab is selected, the following buttons become active:
- Add - add a new updating source in a new dialog box.
- Connection settings - configure proxy settings in a new dialog box.
The settings are similar to those used when configuring the application via its local interface (see section B.1.4 on page 131).

Figure 39. Selecting an updating source
4. Specifying actions for the real-time protection task
The real-time protection task is a set of actions and settings that protect your computer from unauthorized access from the external network.
In the Actions for the real-time protection task (see Fig. 40) dialog box, you can specify the actions for the application to perform on infected objects and on the objects that could not be disinfected. Using the Allow deleting or renaming archives checkbox, you can prohibit / allow the actions to be applied to archives that were flagged by Kaspersky Anti-Virus as suspicious (see section B.2.2 on page 144).

Figure 40. Specifying actions for the real-time protection task
5. Specifying actions for the on-demand scan task
The on-demand scan task is a set of actions and settings that protect your computer from viruses based on preset schedule.
In the Actions for the on-demand scan task dialog box (see Fig. 41), you can specify the actions for the application to perform on infected objects and on the objects that could not be disinfected. You can also prohibit / allow the actions to be applied to archives that were flagged by Kaspersky Anti-Virus as suspicious (see section B.2.2 on page 144).

Figure 41. Specifying actions for the on-demand scan task
6. Specifying the method of first policy enforcement
At this step, in the Policy enforcement dialog box (see Fig. 42), you can specify how this policy will be enforced for the first time on the user computer:
- Do not modify local settings – the local settings that are locked by the new policy will be changed after the policy is applied for the first time. After the policy is deleted, the original values of these settings are restored. The settings that are not locked by the policy will not change after the policy is applied. The values of settings can be modified through the local application interface. After the policy is deleted, the original values are not restored.
- Apply mandatory policy settings to the local settings on the first policy application – the local settings that are locked by the new policy will be changed after the policy is applied for the first time. After the policy is deleted, the original values of these settings are not restored. The settings that are not locked by the policy will not change after the policy is applied. The values of settings can be modified through the local application interface. After the policy is deleted, the original values are not restored.
- Apply all policy settings to the local settings on the first policy application – the local settings that are locked by the new policy will be changed after the policy is applied for the first time. After the policy is deleted, the original values of these settings are not restored. The settings that are not
locked by the policy will also change after the policy is applied. The values of settings can be modified through the local application interface. After the policy is deleted, the original values are not restored.

Figure 42. Specifying the method of the first policy enforcement
7. Finishing creating a policy
The last wizard dialog box (see Fig. 43) informs you that the new policy has been successfully created.
After you exit the wizard, the policy for Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.7 for Novell Netware is added to the Policies folders for the corresponding group and displayed in the results pane.
For this policy, you can configure its settings and lock local settings using the icon. The user will be unable to modify the locked settings through the local interface of Kaspersky Anti-Virus. The policy will take effect on client computers during the first synchronization of the clients with the Administration Server.
Using the Copy/Paste, Cut/Paste, and Delete commands on the context menu and the Actions menu, you can move policies from one group to another and delete them.

Figure 43. Finishing creating a policy
9.1.2. Viewing and editing policy settings
You can modify a policy, lock policy settings for nested groups, and lock application and task settings.
- In the Groups node of the console tree, select a group of computers for which you want to edit policy settings.
- For the selected group, select the Policies node. The details pane will display all policies created for this group.
- In the list of policies, select the policy for Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Novell NetWare (the application name is shown in the Application field).
- In the context menu, select Properties.
A dialog box with the policy settings for this application opens.
The General, Enforcement, and Events tabs are standard tabs for Kaspersky Administration Kit (see the Administrator's Guide for Kaspersky Administration Kit).
Other tabs contain settings specific for Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Novell NetWare. Below you can see descriptions of each of these tabs.

B.2. The On-Demand Scan and Real-Time Protection Tasks
B.2.1. The Scan settings Tab
On the Scan settings tab (see Figure 90) the user can specify the server antivirus scanning parameters, including the locations and file types to be scanned, the locations to be excluded from scanning. Additional scanning modes can also be activated, namely: mail bank scanning, archive scanning, packed executable files scanning, and mail format files scanning. The heuristic code analyzer can also be enabled/disabled here.
If the values were locked using the icon in the module for Kaspersky Administration Kit, you cannot modify them on the Scan settings tab. For such locked settings, the following message is displayed near the name of the tab section: locked by the security policy

Figure 90. Setting up the on-demand scan parameters. The Scan options tab
To define the location to be scanned, do the following:
In the Scan folders field specify the list of directories that will be scanned for viruses. To do so, click on the Browse button to open the Select folder window and using the Add and Remove buttons create the desired list.
By default, the list includes all the volumes of the server, which means that the entire server will be scanned.
To define the location to be excluded from scanning, do the following:
In the Folders excluded from scanning field specify the list of directories that will not be scanned for viruses. The list is created in the same way as the Scan folders list. By default, the list is empty for the On-Demand Scan task; for the Real-Time Protection task the folder containing log files is excluded.

Figure 91. Creating the folders list
To specify the file formats to be scanned, do the following:
- In the Scan files field specify the files you wish to be scanned:
All files - all files (the default value).
- Files infectable by extension - the files specified using wildcards. Edit the list of files that will appear on the right. Remove the unnecessary files and add the desired ones.
You can specify file masks separating them by spaces, e.g.: .exe .com. Any wildcards allowable in MS-DOS file names can be used (for example, . means that files with all extensions will be scanned).
-
All infectable files - scan all the files that can potentially be infected.
-
If you wish to exclude some files from the scanning process, check the Excluded files box and enter the desired file masks in the text field on the right.
You can specify file masks separating them by spaces, e.g.: .tmp .txt.
- If you wish to scan archive files check the Archives box (for more details about extracting engine refer to section B.2.1.2 on page 142).
- If you wish to scan packed executable files check the Packed files box (for more details about the procedure of extracting packed executables refer to section B.2.1.3 on page 142).
-
If you wish to scan the mail repository check the Mail databases box.
-
If you wish to scan mail format files check the Plain mail files box.
You can enable the heuristic file-checking mode (see section B.2.1.1 on page 142) to enable detection of viruses yet unknown to the program.
To do so, check the Use Code Analyzer box.
B.2.1.1. Code analyzer
Code analyzer scans file and sector codes using different paths of the Kaspersky Anti-Virus algorithm and detects virus-like instructions. If Code Analyzer detects a sequence of commands like file opening, file writing, interrupt vector intercept etc. such a file is considered "suspicious" and an appropriate message is displayed.
Of course, like any heuristic algorithm, Code Analyzer can give false responses. However, it has been tested with a very large number of objects and did not give any real false response. If you ever experience false responses with uninfected files, please send copies of these files to Kaspersky Lab for analysis.
When scanning the code for the presence of possible viruses, heuristic analyzer checks multiple paths of the program's algorithm including several sub-layers. This procedure detects about 92% of viruses (including many encrypted ones) from the range of viruses known to Kaspersky Lab. Therefore we expect that new and unknown viruses will be detected with similar probability.
B.2.1.2. Extracting Engine
The Extracting Engine is used for searching viruses in archived files (ZIP, ARJ, LHA and RAR). If the extracting engine is disabled, archives will be scanned as usual files. This means that only viruses that have infected the archive itself will be detected, but not the files stored in it.
The current version of Extracting Engine is capable of unpacking all the existing versions of ARJ, ZIP, LHA, RAR, CAB, and ICE archives.
Detecting viruses in archives is of the utmost importance, since a virus can be stored in an archive as long as several months or even years bringing no harm, but can then spread very quickly causing a lot of trouble.
Using its Extracting Engine, Kaspersky Anti-Virus detects viruses in archived files and informs the user.
Extracting Engine does not unpack password-protected archives.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus does not disinfect archived files; it only detects viruses in them. To disinfect such files you should extract the files from the archive, disinfect them, delete the old archive and repack the clean files.
Extracting Engine unpacks the archived files to the temporary file storage and passes them to the main module for scanning. After scanning, the temporary files are deleted.
Temporary files are stored in a special working directory. You can manually specify the path to this directory (see section A.2 on page 113).
B.2.1.3. Executable Module Extracting Engine
The Executable module extracting engine is used for searching and removing viruses from packed executable files.
Packed executables contain a special unpacking program. When such a file is launched, the main program is first unpacked in the RAM and then executed. Infected files can be packed in the same way as uninfected ones. Regular scans will recognize such infected files as clean, since the virus body is packed with the program code.
With the executable module Extracting Engine enabled the anti-virus program will unpack files created with different versions of the most popular packing utilities, including DIET, PKLITE, LZEXE, EXPACK etc., into the temporary file area and then rescan them using the main module. After scanning, the temporary files are deleted.
Temporary files are stored in a special working directory. You can manually specify the path to this directory (see section A.2 on page 113).
If a known virus is detected in the packed file, it can be removed (if disinfection is set as an action to be applied to infected files – see section B.2.2 on page 144). The initial file will be replaced with its unpacked and disinfected copy. With the extracting engine disabled, executable modules will be scanned as unpacked and a virus can only be detected if it has infected the packed file itself.
The extracting engine works correctly with iteratively packed files. In addition, it works with some versions of file immunizers - the programs that protect executable files from infecting by adding checksums (CPAV and F-XLOCK), as well as with some versions of encryption software (CryptCOM).
If both archive and executable file extracting engines are enabled, then Kaspersky Anti-Virus will detect an infected file even if it is, for example, encrypted with CryptCOM, then packed with PKLITE and finally archived using PKZIP.
B.2.2. The Actions Tab
On the Actions tab (see Figure 92) the user can specify the actions to be taken by the program to any infected or suspicious files if they are detected, as well as the actions to be applied to a workstation that attempts to upload an infected object to the server.
In addition, you can allow/prohibit renaming or deleting of archives during the scanning procedure. To do so, enable or disable the Allow deleting or renaming archives checkbox.
If the values were locked using the icon in the module for Kaspersky Administration Kit, you cannot modify them on the Actions tab. For such locked settings, the following message is displayed near the name of the tab section: locked by the security policy

Figure 92. Setting up the on-demand scan task. The Actions tab
To specify the actions to be taken to the infected files, do the following:
-
In the Actions on infected objects group select one of the variants from the following list:
-
Skip - do not apply any actions.
- Disinfect - disinfect the file (if possible).
- Delete - delete the file.
- Move to the quarantine - move the file to the quarantine directory.
-
Rename - change the file extension to .vir (or .vi1, .vi2 etc, if a file with the same name exists).
-
If you have chosen to disinfect or delete infected files, you can configure the program to save copies of infected files in the quarantine directory. To do so, check the Save a backup copy in the quarantine before disinfecting or deleting box.
-
In the Actions on infected objects if they fail to be disinfected field specify what actions should be taken to the infected file in the event that it fails to be disinfected. You can select one of the following options:
-
Skip - leave the file intact and save the information about it in the log.
- Delete - delete the file.
- Rename - save the file under another name.
To specify the actions to be taken to suspicious files, do the following:
- In the Actions on suspicious objects field select one of the following options:
Suspicious files are those detected with the Code Analyzer.
-
Skip - do not apply any actions.
-
Delete - delete the file.
- Move to the quarantine - move the object to the quarantine directory.
-
Rename - change the file extension to .vir (or .vi1, .vi2 etc, if a file with the same name exists).
-
If you have selected to delete the suspicious files you can instruct the program to save copies of them in the quarantine directory. To do so check the Save a backup copy in the quarantine before deleting box.
To specify the actions to be taken to a workstation that attempts to upload an infected file to the server, do the following:
In the Actions on infected workstation group check one of the following boxes:
- Show warning - if you wish to send an alert to the workstation.
A message will be sent to the workstation as defined on the NW-Notification or E-mail notification tabs (see section B.2.4 on page 151 and section B.2.5 on page 153).
- Block access - if you wish to prevent the workstation from accessing the server.
The workstation will be denied access to the server file systems. It will only be able to regain access after rebooting or reloading Kaspersky Anti-Virus on the server.
B.2.3. The Event log Tab
The Event log tab (see Figure 93) is used for setting up the parameters for logging the update task execution results, including the log file type, its location and size, the list of events to be logged, as well as the file name in which to save the log. A separate log file is created for each task.

Figure 93. Setting up the on-demand scan task. The Event log tab
In the Log file type group you can select the format of the log file:
- XML - two formats: xml and htm. The htm-type file can be viewed using Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0. This is the default format.
- Text - is a *.txt file. The Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 will be also used to display the text, although the journal will have rather traditional view like most of text-files.
The log file name and its location directory are displayed in the Event log file folder group, in the Path and File name fields, respectively. The default directory for storing the log files is LogXml. The directory can be changed with the Browse button in the Path window. The File name is set automatically, based on the task type and its internal ID. The file name cannot be changed by the user.
In order to specify what messages should be logged, do the following:
In the Data to be logged group check the desired boxes of the following list:
-
Infected files - messages regarding infected files.
-
Suspicious files - messages regarding suspicious files.
-Warnings - alerts regarding detection of a modified or a damaged virus in a file. - Packed files – information regarding packed executable files.
- Archives—information regarding archive files.
