README FIRST! Command AntiVirus for NetWare(r) Command Software is proud to introduce Command AntiVirus Version 4.61i with HoloCheck(tm) scanning technology. HoloCheck scanning technology detects tens of thousands of viruses and includes improved polymorphic virus detection. NOTE: After installing Command AntiVirus, we recommend that you perform a manual scan of the server from a workstation to ensure that your system is virus-free. This is especially important if you have not been running anti-virus software prior to this installation. For a list of international distributors of Command AntiVirus (CSAV), see the DISTRIB.TXT file. The file called FILEINFO.TXT is a list of file descriptions and files that have changed since the previous release. Please read the Multi-Platform Quick Start Guide. It provides installation instructions and an overview of Command AntiVirus for all platforms. The Multi-Platform Quick Start Guide is included on the Command AntiVirus CD, or you can download it from our web site at http://www.commandsoftware.com/service/tc-quickst.html. The MQCKST.PDF file contains the Multi-Platform Quick Start Guide. This file can be read with the Adobe(r) Acrobat(r) Reader that is included on the Command AntiVirus CD. For instructions on how to install Acrobat Reader, see the README.TXT file that is located in the ADOBE folder on the CD. If you do not have the Command AntiVirus CD, you can download Acrobat Reader from Adobe Systems Incorporated through our web site at http://www.commandsoftware.com/service/tc-viewutil.html.

The following improvements have been made to the scan engine: - Improved HTML and ASCII scanning. - CSAV now detects W95/Bolzano family viruses. FIXES Some users reported a problem with some documents falsely being reported as "could be misdisinfected virus." This has been fixed. SPECIAL NOTES None for this release. ________ RELEASE NOTES Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) version 4.58.3 12/29/99 PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS Scan engine enhancements have been added to this component release. FIXES Performance issues were reported in relation to the default scanning of self-extracting files in Command AntiVirus 4.58. In CSAV 4.58.3, self-extracting files are no longer scanned by default. However, Dynamic Virus Protection (DVP) scans the contents of the self-extracting file when the files are extracted. In addition, the .EXE portion of the self-extracting file is scanned by default. SPECIAL NOTES None for this release. ________ Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) version 4.58.2 12/28/99 PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures have been added in this release. This includes signatures for detecting more than 200 new trojans. The following improvements have been made to the scan engine: - CSAV now detects malicious or destructive Java code (Java Trojans). - The handling of script viruses is improved. This includes VBScript viruses and ASCII-based viruses. - CSAV now disinfects Office 2000 signed documents. - Scanning of the following is now supported: - OLE1 embedding (embedded files in WordPad and Microsoft Word 6) - WordPerfect 2000 (.WPD) files - Lotus worksheets (.WKS) files - LX (OS/2) files as well as the detection of all OS/2 viruses. - PowerPoint scanning is improved. The disinfection process is revised. However, the disinfection of objects embedded in PowerPoint documents is still not possible. - CSAV features improved scanning in Windows 32-bit programs resulting in higher rates of detection and fewer false positives. - Disinfection of infected .VBS files by deletion is now supported. The following file types are now hard-coded into CSAV's virus scans and they are scanned by default: EXE, COM, SYS, VXD, DLL, DRV, SCR, 386, OV?, CPL, FON, TSK, ACM, ACV, TLB, TSP, OCX, VBX, VOM, VXE, OBJ, SHS, SMM, HLP, CLA, XL?, DOC, DOT, MDB, RTF, MPP, MPT, PPA, PPS, PPT, POT, WBK, PWZ, MSO, OBD, OBT, OBZ, OFT, MSG, EML, TD0, BAT, BTM, INI, INF, HT?, VBS, GMS, CSC, WPD, WK?, DVB, WBT, and CDR A new virus definition file, SIGN2.DEF, is now included with Command AntiVirus. This file provides virus signatures for a variety of scripting viruses and trojans. FIXES None in this release. SPECIAL NOTES To run Command AntiVirus for NetWare, we now recommend that your server have at least 16MB of RAM above and beyond what is required for running Novell NetWare. If you run into a server memory problem, use FPNAdmin to configure scans to not scan previously scanned files. The self-extracting file called SE_EICAR.EXE is no longer included with the installation files. However, you can download this file from our web site at: http://www.commandcom.com/html/utils.html When you run this file, a test file, EICAR.COM (from European Institute for Computer Anti-Virus Research), is extracted from it. _____________ Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) version 4.57.1 09/13/99 PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures have been added in this release. This includes the ability to detect and disinfect the Monopoly virus. FIXES An NFS (Network File System) update has corrected the problem of NFS and Macintosh (tm) clients being unable to access files on NetWare volumes with NFS or Macintosh name space. Scan engine General Protection Faults that occurred when CSAV disinfected user macros have been fixed. Modifications have been made to the code behavior monitoring process to correct occurrences of false positives. SPECIAL NOTES None for this release. _____ Release Notes Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) version 4.57 07/12/99 PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures have been added in this release. Command AntiVirus now includes expanded protection for the following: A. CorelDraw -- The newly discovered CorelDraw virus is now detected. The .CSC CorelDraw-related extension is now scanned by default. B. MacOffice -- Viruses in MacOffice documents can be detected and disinfected. However, as the Macintosh(tm) operating system is not directly supported by Command AntiVirus, detection is possible only when the infected Macintosh Office documents are scanned in a DOS or Windows-based environment. For example, if you have a floppy disk with infected MacOffice documents on it, you can disinfect these documents by using CSAV to scan the floppy disk. C. Microsoft Office 97 -- The .MPT, .WBK and .MSO extensions are now scanned by default. D. Office 2000 -- The heuristics scan engine has been modified so that it now detects some native Office 2000 viruses. E. PowerPoint 97 -- PowerPoint 97 viruses are now detected and disinfected. The .PP?, .POT, and .PWZ PowerPoint 97 file types are now scanned by default. An additional generic virus detector has been added. This detector allows Command AntiVirus to detect approximately 14,000 more "generic viruses." This brings the total number of viruses detected by Command AntiVirus to just over 39,500. The CSAV scanners have been optimized to provide better protection against "New Executable" file viruses and VxD viruses. Improvements have also been made to reduce the occurrence of false positives. If you open an infected Microsoft Office 97 document in Microsoft Office 2000, our HoloCheck scan engine will detect the infection. Documents converted to Office 2000 format from Office 97 format can be disinfected. Currently, disinfecting an Office 2000 document consists of removing all macros from the document. Files that do not have a file name extension are now scanned by default. FIXES Saving files to a Novell Storage Services (NSS) volume on NetWare 5.0 servers would abend those servers. This has been fixed. SPECIAL NOTES None for this release. ____ Release Notes for Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) Version 4.54 SP2 (Service Pack 2) 03/11/99 ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures have been added in this release. The following default extensions have been added: .VXD and .386. The following default extensions have been removed: .APP and PGM. The default refresh interval for the server list is now 10 minutes instead of 5 seconds. You may change this by editing the "RefreshInterval" keyword in the FPNADMIN.INI file. Enter the new value in seconds. Note that you may always see the current statistics for any server by highlighting it. FIXES When scanning in disinfect mode, sometimes the message "Virus could not be removed" would appear in the output window. Since the file was not infected, the error message was incorrect. During installation, sometimes the message "Can't get server list - 1" would appear. This has been fixed. Release Notes for Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) Version 4.54 SP1 (Service Pack 1) 02/02/99 PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures were added for this release. SCR (screen saver) and RTF (Rich Text Format) files are now scanned by default. SCR files are scanned because they are susceptible to some Windows 95/98 viruses. RTF files are scanned because infected DOC files that have had their extensions changed to "RTF" can still infect other Word documents and templates. CSAV now scans for ASCII-based viruses such as BAT viruses, JavaScript viruses and malicious applications, and VBScript viruses. CSAV also detects mIRC scripts containing malicious code. Better detection for Excel macro and field viruses has been added. The scanning of MDB files is improved. Disinfection for polymorphic viruses such as W97M/Class that are found in the wild is new and improved. Selective disinfection allows you to remove the macro virus and all traces of the disinfection process. In password-protected documents, CSAV removes the virus but leaves traces of the disinfection process behind. In both instances, the original document is preserved. FIXES None for this release. SPECIAL NOTES To update Command AntiVirus with this service pack, you must run the service pack's SETUP.EXE program. Note that only the components that require updating will be modified. If you plan to update to CSS Central version 1.04, update all client stations to Command AntiVirus version 4.54 prior to performing the CSS Central update. This allows you to avoid complications that can arise due to changes that were made to the communication port settings in CSS Central version 1.04. Release Notes for Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) version 4.54 12/04/98 PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures have been added for this release. The scan engine has been optimized for faster scanning. This includes faster scanning of a wider variety of compound files such as Microsoft Word and Excel files. Command AntiVirus for NetWare now detects Java viruses and Access 97 viruses. Disinfection ability will be added in an upcoming release. In the DOMAIN section of the FPNADMIN.INI file, there is a new key named "RefreshInterval". This key allows users to change the main screen's server refresh interval. The default interval is 5 seconds. If your server list does not refresh completely because the interval is too small, you can increase the number of seconds to assure more time between intervals. Additional support for compressed executable files has been added. Specifically, compressed executables are scanned in memory. This allows for faster scans of compressed files. FIXES Difficulties with using wildcards in the files exclusion path have been addressed. The specific problem involved using more than one wildcard symbol (*) to exclude an entire class or set of files, for example, "sys:abc\*.*". Using the wildcard symbols occasionally resulted in an "unallocated resources" error. This is fixed. AlertTrack did not allow logging on to a NetWare Directory Service (NDS) server from the management console unless the /BINDERY switch was loaded. This is fixed. SPECIAL NOTES Microsoft Access (MDB) database files are now scanned by default. If you determine that real-time scans are noticeably slower, remove the .MDB extension from the Files To Include list. Then, create a scheduled scan task that periodically scans all the files in your Microsoft Access folders. For information regarding the functionality of Command Software products with regard to the Year 2000 issue, please visit our web site at: http://www.commandcom.com/html/tech/ts-year2000.html ----- 09/15/98 Release Notes for Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) version 4.53 PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures have been added in this release. FIXES None for this release. SPECIAL NOTES None for this release. 08/21/98 Release Notes for Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) version 4.52a PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures have been added in this release. FIXES On rare occasions, an error message appeared stating that AlertTrack could not locate the SYS volume object on NDS servers. To circumvent the problem, we now also look for the name of the volume object, "servername_SYS" (where "servername" contains the actual name of the server) and use that name it if exists. A problem involving the "Exclude=" statement in F-PROT.INI not accepting certain server names has been corrected. SPECIAL NOTES Command AntiVirus for NetWare 4.52 has been officially certified by Novell for use on Novell NetWare 5.0. Users of Command AntiVirus for NetWare may experience occasional "Out of Cache" memory events when CSAV for NetWare is used under CLIB N which is included in NWSP5b. We have noticed that CLIB N releases memory differently than the earlier versions of CLIB. During your computing session, CLIB N eventually will release the memory in question. However, it is not possible to determine exactly when that memory will be released. We are working with the Novell Corporation to arrive at a solution for this situation. Until the CLIB N situation is resolved, users may want to circumvent the problem by using an earlier version of CLIB. Enhancements to CSAV for NetWare's VSENGINE requires that you install the latest patches for Novell NetWare. The required patches are: For NetWare 3.11 servers: 311PTG.EXE and LIB311b.EXE For NetWare 3.12 servers: 312PTD.EXE and LIB312a.EXE For NetWare 4.1x servers: LIBUPG.EXE and IWSP5.EXE If you have applied LIBUPH.EXE or IWSP5b.EXE, then the following settings must me made in your STARTUP.NCF or AUTOEXEC.NCF files: Set number of frees for garbage collection = 100 For further information regarding these patches, we suggest that you visit Novell's web site located at: http://support.novell.com/misc/patlst.htm The ENGLISH.TX0 file has been removed from the DEPLOYNW.FPN file as ".TX0" files are no longer needed in CSAV for NetWare. If you have ENGLISH.TX0 listed in the [DEPLOY] section of your FPNADMIN.INI file you may want to remove it. 6/05/98 Release Notes Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) version 4.51 F-PROT.NLM v4.51 VSEngine.NLM v4.51 with F-PROT scan engine 3.00 FPNAdmin.EXE v4.51 F-Delay.NLM v4.51 PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS Command AntiVirus boasts our HoloCheck (tm) scanning technology, providing the most up-to-date virus prevention. The most important benefits of this technology are: * Simplified updates. You can now update the SIGN.DEF and Macro.def files (which contain the most current virus signatures) without reinstalling all of the components. This method adds speed and efficiency to the new version of Command AntiVirus. * Superior polymorphic virus detection. CSAV now offers unparalleled protection and elimination of polymorphic viruses including the dreaded Morphine, Anxiety and Spanska. * Scanning of embedded (OLE) documents. Not only do we scan documents, but if an infected document is embedded in an Excel spreadsheet or PowerPoint document, Command AntiVirus will catch it and save you from becoming infected. New virus signatures have been added in this release. F-MACRO.NLM has been removed. F-MACRO is now part of every scanner and is therefore not needed as a separate utility. REQUIREMENTS The following updates/patches are required: NetWare 3.11 - lib311a + 311ptg NetWare 3.12 - lib312a + 312ptd NetWare 4.0x - libupg NetWare 4.10 - libupg + 410pt8a NetWare 4.11 - iwsp5b SPECIAL NOTES We have removed the -OLE command-line switch. **AlertTrack** We are aware of the intermittent problems with the failure of NWIPXSPX.DLL to initialize when you are using Windows NT. We are working on the problem. For ALERTTRK.NLM to recognize NDS servers, the machine running the administration program must use IntraNetWare Client32 or MS Client with the MSNDS patch. Without this configuration, NDS machines will not be correctly seen or handled. **AlertTrack** NDS servers: ============ For ALERTTRK.EXE to recognize NDS servers, the workstation running the administration program must use the appropriate NetWare network files. IntraNetWare Client32 for Windows 95/98/NT or MS Client for NetWare Networks for 95/98 with the MSNDS patch must be running or NDS machines will not be correctly seen or handled. To successfully launch AlertTrack Administration in NDS mode, users must log into an NDS tree. AlertTrack requires the use of fully qualified user names for the broadcast recipient list. User names must be entered as they appear on the connection list window in the Monitor program. NDS Example: username.context Bindery Emulation on NetWare 4.x and 5.x servers: ================================================= A user wishing to run AlertTrack Administration on a server using bindery emulation must perform two additional steps. On the server run AlertTrack using the command LOAD alerttrk.nlm /bindery. On the main login screen of the administration utility, check the "Force Bindery Login" checkbox. ******************************************************* 01/13/98 Release Notes Command AntiVirus for NetWare (CSAV) 4.00 F-PROT.NLM v4.00 VSEngine.NLM v4.00 with F-PROT scan engine 2.28 FPNAdmin.EXE v4.00 F-Delay.NLM v4.00 ******************** PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS New virus signatures have been added in this release. An error message is now generated when trying to deploy CSAV from a server when a scan is running. FIXES A minor problem involving filenames with accented characters being duplicated as zero-byte files after a scan has been corrected. When running SETUP.EXE, if users did not install any components a screen would appear indicating that the installation was successful. This inconsistency has been fixed. When a user at the console changes scans while one or more CSAV Administration users is also trying to change a scan, an error message would appear stating that "The selected scan no longer exists or is currently running." CSAV has been modified to reread the scheduled scans list whenever that menu item is selected. This modification should significantly reduce the number of times that the error message is generated. A minor problem involving the misalignment of text when entering a the name of a message recipient that consisted of more than 11 characters has been fixed. Real-time statistics now clear properly for servers with very long server names when "Clear All Settings" is chosen in CSAV Administration. The default deploy files list in FPNADMIN.INI will now be regenerated if that file is deleted. Before it would only be regenerated if the [Deploy] section was not present. SPECIAL NOTES On rare occasions, unloading CSAV at a NetWare 3.x server may result in a "Module did not release 28 resources" message. If you encounter this message, please contact our Technical Support Department. In the Notification dialog box, the option to send a report to the System Log file is no longer available. ******************************************************** 10/15/97 Release Notes FPN 3.01 F-PROT.NLM v3.01 VSEngine.NLM v3.01 with F-PROT scan engine 2.27A FPNAdmin.EXE v3.01 F-Delay.NLM v3.01 ******************** PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS We added a console interface called FPNCON to make it easier to perform tasks directly at the server console. To use the new text user interface type: LOAD FPNCON at the server console. Note that FPNCON will not work on NetWare 3.11 as it requires NWSNUT version 4.11 or higher. SETUP.NLM reverts to plain text mode if your system is using an NWSNUT that is earlier than version 4.11. We replaced the DEPLOY DOS/WINDOWS menu option with a DEPLOY SELECTED FILES option. This new option allows any file (not just F-PROT files) to be copied to FPN servers. The function is similar to the NCOPY command with the added advantages of allowing you to update multiple servers at one time and to reload F-PROT after the update. (NOTE: You will still need to reload AlertTrack if it is updated.) When this option is accessed, the default selection of F-PROT files are displayed in a new dialog box. You can add or remove files to this list. In this release, you cannot change the settings of the checkboxes at the bottom of the dialog box. The contents of that dialog box are written to the [Deploy] section in FPNADMIN.INI upon program termination and are read back whenever FPNAdmin is started again. If a password cannot be changed on a server domain, a message box appears identifying the server. The scan engine version number can now be seen on the main screen under the column header SCN. INSTALLATION: The AlertTrack and FPN installation is now combined. The client files of AlertTrack and FPN install into the "F-PROT Professional" program folder. If a "Network Security Solutions" program folder exists then it is optionally removed. Also, the FPN Administration icons have different names then previous installations; if the old icons exist in the default program group they too are deleted. The AlertTrack help icon is now in the program folder. The ???WIN16.DLL (for example, CALWIN16.DLL, CLNWIN16.DLL, etc.) files are now always copied in the Windows' SYSTEM directory, if they do not already exist. If these files exist in the default F-PROT directory they are deleted. Also, the ???WIN16.DLL files used to be updated as a group; unless all of them were newer none of them were copied during the installation. This is no longer the case and each file of the group can be used to replace its namesake in the Windows' SYSTEM directory. The Help files contain a new feature that provides Internet access directly from the opening help screen. There are two icons available for this purpose. One takes you to our home page and the other takes you to the page for obtaining an update. You must have Internet capability and a browser to use this feature. FIXES An abend caused by volume names greater 14 characters has been fixed. An abend sometimes seen on high utilization, large volume (~25 gigs) systems has been fixed. An abend caused by extremely long include/exclude lists has been fixed. SPECIAL NOTES The Internet feature in the Help files requires the presence of the following files: INTETWH16.DLL, INETWH32.32 and SETBROWS.EXE. These files need to be in the same directory as the help file. The AlertTrack files have been added the DEPLOYNW.FPN file and to the [Deploy] section in FPNADMIN.INI. If you do not have AlertTrack installed on your system, you may want to either remove or "comment out" the AlertTrack-related lines in these files. To comment out those lines, place a semi-colon in front of them. The F-PROT Professional for NetWare SETUP.NLM has been moved back to disk 2. ********************************************************************* Special Notes from previous versions of Command's F-PROT Professional In an effort to reduce the size of the readme files we remove most of the notes from older versions as they become less relevant. We leave certain notes which are still pertinent. 7/18/97 Release Notes FPN 2.27B PRODUCT ENHANCEMENTS Novell has replaced the NWCALLS.DLL with several new DLLs. For this reason, we are no longer installing NWCALLS with FPN. We now install the following new DLLs: CALWIN16.DLL, CLNWIN16.DLL, CLXWIN16.DLL, LOCWIN16.DLL and NCPWIN16.DLL. The new DLLs offer better support for Client 32, a simplified server connection management scheme, and will permit more flexibility when using NDS as FPN becomes more NDS-aware. We have tested the new DLLs using NetWare Client 32 for DOS/Windows 3.1 and the NetWare DOS requester (VLMs). Clients running NETX.EXE have not been fully tested. As NETX.EXE is no longer updated by Novell, we recommend using either NetWare Client 32 or the NetWare DOS requester. 6/9/97 Release Notes FPN 2.27 There is a new option, "Remove all macros if variant is found", now available in the "Settings" tab for Manual scan, Scheduled scan, Real-time scan, and Global default scans. If this option is selected, all macros are removed from any file containing a new or modified variant of a macro virus. This new option is only available when the Action to take is "Disinfect". If this option is not selected, and the Action to take is "Disinfect", files that contain remnants or are variants of macro infections are renamed. There is a new error message in FPN: "No available connections from primary server". Cause: NetWare (especially version 3.x) only permits the use of a Specified number of user connections to a server based on the license. When FPN Administration updates the FPN information on its main screen it asks the primary server to ask the other servers in the domain for information about themselves. This requires the use of a licensed connection. If there are no more connections are available you will see the message. Effect: No FPN information is available from some servers; prior to adding this new message the user saw a message saying that FPN was "unloaded" from that server. Now you will see the new message. Solution: First try making another server the primary server. It might be that there are enough connections available at the new one. Or, wait until someone logs off the servers and frees up a connection. ==================================================== Compatibility update: FPN is compatible with the current shipping versions of the following products. We recommend using only these current versions. 1. Backup Agent for Open Files v3.0 2. Open File Manager v3.0 3. ARCserve v6.0 4. Backup Exec v7.11a 5. Replica v2.1 Additional notes and comments: When a scan is run, it will scan all servers in the "Selected Servers" list box - not just the one you have highlighted. Remove them from the list if they are not to be scanned. When first using F-PROT Professional for NetWare, it is suggested the first scan include compressed & migrated files, and the action be Report. This is strictly a precautionary strategy. =================================================== PRODUCT SUPPORT Command Software Systems' technical support includes a variety of electronic services.
