Our programming team expects the port to FreeBSD/NetBSD to be a simple recompile. Like all of McAfee's software products evaluation copies of uvscan are available from our ftp sites ftp://ftp.mcafee.com/pub/antivirus/vlnx100e.taz (for the Linux version: vsun100e.taz for SunOS and vsol100e.taz for Solaris). Actually I should try it on my FreeBSD servers under the new Linux binary compatibility. Is there anything special I need to do to run a Linux a.out or ELF binary under FreeBSD?
