ESET NOD32 Antivirus should work, but you should better use ESET FileSecurity for Windows Server as this is the product, which is specially designed for Windows Servers.

 

Also have a look at the according part(s) of this forum:

ESET Business User Products → ESET Products for Windows Servers

 

Edit: According to @foneil, only old versions of ESET NOD32 Antivirus can be installed on a Windows server. That's why I striked the first part out.

I would also advice using File Security rather then NOD32 Antivirus. One of the reason is that File Security have "automatic exclusions". This is important on servers.

If you prefer using NOD32 Antivirus anyways, use Endpoint. It will be good to read this article: hxxp://kb.eset.com/esetkb/index?page=content&id=SOLN3078&locale=en_US

While using NOD32 Endpoint Antivirus, you should manually set exclusions depending on the server role following this article: hxxp://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/953.microsoft-anti-virus-exclusion-list.aspx

EDIT: foneil is right. Sorry for the confusion

Additionally, you can't use the home products (for example, ESET NOD32 Antivirus, EAV) with ERA. And, afaik, only the very old versions of EAV (4.x) could be installed on a server, with many manual configurations needed--which is why we released EFSW as rugk said.
