SuSE 10 questions


Hi, I have several questions about SuSE 10.

1. Why am I not able to add a network printer anymore? I go to YaST, Hardware, printer, and click add, but I'm not given an option for an SMB printer. I already added one before that still functions, but I still need another added. Using Printing manager almost worked until I got to the Authentification screen, in which I put in every username and password combination of my computer and home network, and nothing.

2. What is a good on-demand virus scanner? I need one where I can right-click a file and have it scanned, as well as scan the whole system. I don't need a real-time one. I know Linux doesn't get viruses but I share files between Windows machines, so yeah.

3. How can I set up an FTP server on SuSE?

Thank you.

Hello!

2. I have tested several free virusscanners two weeks ago and the following ones were good:

a) www.antivir.de
b) www.f-prot.com

Both are easy to install and configure (documentation).
3.?

Greetings

Thanks. I used YaST to install antivir because they had it on the DVD and it doesn't show up anywhere- nothing in the K menu, nothing in the right-click menu. How do you have it scan a file?

I know you can do it from command line by typing antivir /path

I can't get Antivir to scan my whole system though, I have tried

antivir /
antivir /dev/hda3

they say 1 directory and don't scan anyfiles when it shows the report

Can you tell us all how you sorted out question 1? I have the same problem and have also tried every user and password that I can think of.
