I am using SAVFL 1.10.14-13. following http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=TECH102882, 'How to configure scanning of compressed files in Symantec AntiVirus for Linux' I want to manually edit a GRC.DAT file to include from the instructions:
Disabling RealTime scanning of compressed files by deploying a GRC.DAT file
You can use the ConfigEd tool to create custom setting files for deployment with SAVFL.
See "Configuring Symantec AntiVirus for Linux" in SAV_Linux_Impl.pdf and How to use rpm to package a GRC.DAT file into a Symantec AntiVirus for Linux installation
The ConfigEd GUI does not have an option for disabling auto-protect scanning of compressed files, but the GRC.DAT file will include such an option (disabled by default).
You can edit the GRC.DAT manually; look for the following line:
!KEY!=$REGROOT$\storages\filesystem\realtimescan
This line will be followed by various realtimescan (auto-protect) options, one per line.
ZipFile=D0 indicates auto-protect scanning of compressed files is disabled.
ZipFile=D1 is enabled.
I only have SAV on Linux not windows. But I got the tool ConfigEd.exe from your website, and ran it. it generate a GRC.DAT that did NOT have the key '!KEY!=$REGROOT$\storages\filesystem\realtimescan'. I manually edited the GRC.DAT and added to the end of the file:
!KEY!=$REGROOT$\storages\filesystem\realtimescan
ZipFile=D1
I update the 'GRC-State-Counter' by one. I place the GRC.DAT in /var/symantec and the system does update but this configuration is NOT set. I can change other values that were originally in the generated GRC.DAT file but NOT this option. Other values such as
!KEY!=$REGROOT$
LogFrequency=D1
And after running, I see a change from "D0" to "D1". Is it possible to manually ADD lines to a GRC.DAT file? Is there an order in which i can add files such as this in the GRC.DAT file?
Thanks
