Does Eset Mail Security have to be installed on the same server that is running exchange

[CStrauss 0]

or can I install it on to a terminal server as I do not want to install the required Hotfix for a trial version.

 

We are looking at purchasing this software, but it all depends on how it works

ESET Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange must be installed on the server with MS Exchange. If you don't want to have MS Exchange protected, you can install ESET File Security. Also not sure what hotfix you meant. If you meant https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2664888(Computer stops responding when you run an application that uses the Windows Filtering Platform API in Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Vista), we strongly recommend installing it on any computer regardless of whether ESET is installed or not as it addresses a critical issue in Windows Filtering Platform.
