Supported kernels The following kernel modules are provided in this release, for 32-bit and 64-bit (x86_64) operating systems. If your kernel is not listed here, see About kernel support section and Creating kernel modules section. About kernel support The VirusScan Enterprise for Linux installation includes on-access kernel modules for the versions of RedHat, SuSE, and Ubuntu that we support. See the tables in Supported kernels section to get the full list of kernels. We provide these modules for the original kernel versions that are shipped with the distribution, and for the latest official kernel updates provided by Red Hat, SuSE, and Ubuntu at the time of this release. Our updates for their later kernels will be available from http://mysupport.nai.com. Source code for the kernel modules is also available on your product CD, or from our product download site. The availability of this source code allows you to respond to security patches as quickly as your specific environment and company policy dictates. However, we are unable to provide support for customized kernel modules because we cannot test them or reproduce specific issues.
