RE: [FW1] eSafe scanning

That's strange. We don't have any problem with ActiveX/Java scrubbing. The
only time that we get "Fail to contact Content Security server" is when ESPG
goes down.
I missed your last posting about updating the virus table for the remote
client. There is no Update button on the Virus Table GUI page. How do you
update it. Should it only reflect the version of ESPG box? Why the remote
GUI need a virus table? It is not doing the scanning.

Ken,
Thanks for the tip...unfortunately, I have tried that
without success. I still get file truncation. I also
get "Failed to contact Content Security Server" if I
employ the HTTP/Java/ActiveX scrubbing. Strange.
I have eSafe helping me try to find out what is going
on. They sent me some debugging tools. It appears that
the ESPG actually gets the entire 35MB file, but it
fails to forward it to the FTP client. This is what I
derived from the debugging file, anyway. I sent it to
eSafe, but I have yet to hear from them.
Did you get my post about updating your remote
client's virus pattern file? You can update your
remote client's virus pattern file just as you can
update your ESPG's.
After my first response to your email, I thought I
would try to update my remote client...sure enough:
Success! Now both have dates 4/25/99.
Take Care,
Chris
