Updating the Virus Databases

Updating of the virus definition databases is performed via the Automatic Updating Utility (Updater). The Updater launches according to schedule specified in a program document named drwebupdate.bat which is created in the Domino directory of the server address book during the installation of the Dr.Web for IBM Lotus Domino. By default, the Updater launches every 30 minutes. The program document can be edited via the Domino Administrator client.

To edit the updating schedule:

1.Start the Lotus Domino server.
2.Start Domino Administrator.
3.Click the Configuration tab and then the Server item in the hierarchical menu on the left.
4.Click the Programs item in the opened submenu and select the drwebupdate.bat program in the list.
5.Click the Edit Program button at the top of the window and make the necessary changes.

The Updater can also be launched manually in command line mode by launching the drwebupdate.bat file. In command line mode you can specify additional parameters (see Appendix A. Automatic Updating Utility Command Line Parameters).

If you are using a proxy server, it is necessary to adjust the Updater for operation via a proxy server.

To set up the Updater for operation via a proxy server:

1.In the Dr.Web for IBM Lotus Domino installation folder (usually, %PROGRAMFILES%\DrWeb for Lotus Domino), start drwebupw.exe.
2.In the dialog window, click Settings.
3.In the Settings window, open the Proxy tab.
4.Enter the IP address and the port number that the proxy server uses.
5.If required, enter user name and the password needed for connection to the proxy server or leave blank if the proxy server allows anonymous access.
6.Click OK.
