Startup Notes

The component cannot be run directly from the command line of the operating system in an autonomous mode (autonomously from other components). It is run automatically by the configuration daemon Dr.Web ConfigD configuration daemon when required (usually on operating system startup). If a value of the FixedSocketPath parameter in the configuration is specified, the agent is always running and available for clients via the specified UNIX socket. To start scanning via network, you can use the Dr.Web Ctl command-line tool for Dr.Web for UNIX Internet Gateways management (it is started by the command drweb-ctl). If there are no configured connections to remote hosts, the local scanning will be started.

To scan an arbitrary file or directory using Dr.Web Network Checker you can use netscan command of Dr.Web Ctl tool:

$ drweb-ctl netscan <path to file or directory>
