- **********************************************************************
- ** Enabling Scanning Features **
- **********************************************************************
-
- Several scanning features can be enabled through the use of an INF
- configuration file. For NAV for Windows 95/NT version 4.x and later,
- or NAV for OS/2, this configuration file should be called NAVEX15.INF
- and should be placed in the directory where NAV is installed (i.e.,
- C:\Program Files\Norton AntiVirus). For NAV for Netware version 4.x,
- the file should be called NAVEX15.INF and should be placed in the
- directory where NAV 4.x is installed (i.e., sys:system\navnlm). For
- NAV for Windows 95/NT version 2.0, NAV 4.x for Windows 3.1/DOS,
- NAVIEG 1.x, or NAVFW 1.x, the file should be named NAVEX.INF and
- should be placed in the directory where NAV is installed (i.e., C:\NAV).
- If this configuration file does not exist, create one in the appropriate
- directory if you want to change the default settings.
-
- To enable a scanning feature for a particular component, one or more
- entries need to be added to the configuration file under the correct
- section. For each platform there is a corresponding section that is used
- in the INF file. Below is a table of section names and platforms.
-
- Section Name Platform
- ------------ --------
- NAVW32 Windows 95/98/NT
- NAVAP Windows 95/98/NT Auto-Protect
- NAVDX DOS
- NAVNLM Netware
- NAVWIN Windows 3.1
- NAVOS2 OS/2
- NAVAIX AIX
- NAVSOL Solaris
-
- Entries are case insensitive. Below is a description of possible
- entries.
-
- 1. Files can be excluded from scans by the NAVEX engine. To exclude a
- specific file from the NAVEX engine scan, add an entry with the full
- path and file name. This is case insensitive. No wildcards are allowed.
- To exclude multiple files, add a separate entry for each file. To exclude
- a file, add an entry like the one below where <PATH> is the full path
- and file name.
- ExcludeFile = <PATH>
-
- 2. Files within a directory can be excluded from scans by the NAVEX engine.
- To exclude all files within a directory, add an entry with the full
- directory path. This is case insensitive. No wildcards are allowed. This
- does not exclude files located in subdirectories of the specified
- directory. To exclude multiple directories, add a separate entry for each
- directory. To exclude a directory, add an entry like the one below where
- <DIRECTORY> is the full path.
- ExcludeDirectory = <DIRECTORY>
-
- The following example of an INF configuration file excludes two files,
- NOSCAN.EXE and BIGFILE.DOC, from NAVEX scans for the Windows 95/98/NT
- scanner. It excludes the D:\PRIVATE directory from Windows 95/98/NT
- Auto-Protect.
-
- [NAVW32]
- ExcludeFile = C:\PROGRAM FILES\NOSCAN.EXE
- ExcludeFile = C:\TEMP\BIGFILE.DOC
-
- [NAVAP]
- ExcludeDirectory = D:\PRIVATE
