I'm the user reporting. We don't have the problem on all RHEL7.[78] systems. They're all standard. Cloned Hyper-V server fails while the original works. We use standard RHEL repos.

Anybody running efs-7.1.558 on RHEL7.7/8 recognizes and maybe solved: # /opt/eset/efs/bin/upd -u ESET File Security Error: Cannot connect to /var/run/eset/efs/confd.sock: No such file or directory

What's the difference, from anti-virus/malware/... viewpoint, between a file server, with multiple clients accessing files via NFS/SMB/... and a workstation with a single user accessing local files and network resources? Is there a difference in attack vectors? In prevention, detection, ... I think every write should be processed. After virus updates, the reads should be monitored?

At the moment we are running version 7.0.1152.0-1. Is this an update? I would like to try it.

After cleaning old ESET file security 4 Linux & agent files I installed using the commands given below. Worked like a charm on RHEL8! On RHEL7 I had to killed the first startd (parent init) to get the other processes running. Looks as a major improvement compared to the old 4 version. Did not test thoroughly yet. Needed "systemctl enable eraagent && systemctl start eraagent" to survive a reboot. # wget https://download.eset.com/com/eset/apps/business/efs/linux/latest/efs.x86_64.bin # wget https://download.eset.com/com/eset/apps/business/era/agent/v7/latest/agent-linux-x86_64.sh # sh ./efs.x86_64.bin # {yum|dnf} install efs-7.0.1152.0.x86_64.rpm # /opt/eset/efs/sbin/setgui -gre # /opt/eset/efs/sbin/startd # sh agent-linux-x86_64.sh --skip-license --cert-auto-confirm \ --hostname=raserver --port=2222 \ --webconsole-hostname=raserver --webconsole-port=2223 \ --webconsole-user="user" --webconsole-password="password" : Initialized log file: /var/log/eset/RemoteAdministrator/EraAgentInstaller.log : ESET Management Agent Installer (version: 7.1.367.0), ...
