Sophos Antivirus

[nicola.piazzi]

Hi
I found that is possible to install Sophos Antivirus for Linux
It is a FREE product and it can greatly increase efficency, so we can have 2 engine with 2 pattern
This is the page where software can be downloaded :
https://www.sophos.com/it-it/products/f ... linux.aspx

I installed succesfully in a machine called TESTAPACHE that is not efa server and that have Centos 7.1
In efa box with Centos 6.6 I have an error in installing
I think that it will be useful to solve it because Clam is not the best engine and Sophos addition will be a great enhancement

Here my steps in TESTAPACHE :

Watching release :
[root@TESTAPACHE ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core)

Here the package under root :
[root@TESTAPACHE ~]# ls sav*
sav-linux-free-9.tgz

Untar package :
[root@TESTAPACHE ~]# tar xzvf sav-linux-free-9.tgz
sophos-av/
sophos-av/sav.tar
sophos-av/talpa.tar
sophos-av/uncdownload.tar
sophos-av/install.sh

Launching install (following reported are choices not as default) :
[root@TESTAPACHE ~]# ./sophos-av/install.sh
Do you want to enable on-access scanning? Yes(Y)/No(N) [Y]
> N
Do you wish to install the Free (f) or Supported (s) version of SAV for Linux? [s]
> f

Here my steps in EFA :

Watching release :
[root@EFA etc]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.6 (Final)

Here the package under root :
[root@EFA ~]# ls sav*
sav-linux-free-9.tgz

Untar package :
[root@EFA ~]# tar xzvf sav-linux-free-9.tgz
sophos-av/
sophos-av/sav.tar
sophos-av/talpa.tar
sophos-av/uncdownload.tar
sophos-av/install.sh

Launching install :
[root@EFA ~]# ./sophos-av/install.sh
./sophos-av/install.sh: line 38: sophos-av/install.sh: Permission denied


Obviously is not a simple permission problem, I tried to change in install.sh the temp path from /tmp to /tmp2 and script go on
but after some time when installing, it take another error
