Installing from Repository

 Top  Previous  Next

Dr.Web for UNIX Mail Servers‘s native packages are stored in the Dr.Web official repository at https://repo.drweb.com/. Once you have added the Dr.Web repository to the list of those used by your operating system’s package manager, you can install the product from native packages as you install any other programs from the operating system’s repositories. Required dependencies are automatically resolved.

All the commands mentioned below—the commands used to add repositories, to import digital signature keys, to install and remove packages—must be performed with superuser ( root) privileges. To elevate the privileges, use the su command (to change the current user) or the sudo command (to execute the specified command with another user’s privileges).

 

Note that for the FreeBSD and Solaris operating systems, the product can be installed only from the universal package.

Debian, Mint, Ubuntu (apt)
