I've downloaded the free Sophos antivirus package for Linux (is this a good antivirus for eOS Loki?). However, I'm still a beginner and I don't know how to install it.
I extracted the package in the Downloads folder:
/home/anna/Downloads/sav-linux-free-9.tgz
The extracted files are:
install.sh
sav.tar
talpa.tar
uncdownload.tar
I don't know what to do next. I tried following the Sophos online instructions for installing on a standalone, but I didn't know how to copy the package to a temporary folder and when I enter the install command in root, it says it can't locate the package:
Download the relevant tarball for your platform and copy it to a temporary directory. For example:
/tmp
Change to the temporary directory and untar the tarball. For example:
cd /tmp tar -xzvf tarball Run the install script: ./sophos-av/install.sh
Follow the on-screen instructions to complete installation.
There is no support for home linux users from Sophos. Can anyone in this community help?
Thanks!
