Installing the Product

Top  Previous  Next

To install Dr.Web for UNIX Internet Gateways, do one of the following:

1.From the Doctor Web’s official website, download the installation file that contains a universal package for UNIX systems. The package includes an installer (due to the fact that the installation program is developed for the command line mode, for its operation in the mode of the graphical desktop, you will need to have a terminal emulator available).

2.Install the product in the form of a set of native packages (to do this, you will need to connect to the corresponding package repository of Doctor Web).

For FreeBSD and Solaris, the product can be installed only from the universal package.

 

Regardless of the selected way to install Dr.Web for UNIX Internet Gateways, after the installation completes, you need to activate the license and to install the received key file. Moreover, you can connect the product to a central protection server. For details, refer to Licensing.

Otherwise, anti-virus protection remains disabled.

After you installed the product by any of the mentioned means, you can uninstall or update it if there are fixes for its components available or if a new product versions is released. If required, you can also configure security subsystems of GNU/Linux for correct operation of the installed product. If there is a problem with functioning of any individual components, you can perform their custom installation and uninstallation, without uninstalling the entire installed product.
