1st June 2008, 11:52 AM #1 Anti Virus for Terminal Server?
We are having a TS/Citrix box installed and am wondering what security software to use. We currently use NOD32 on our servers and clients and i'm wondering if it's suitable for TS as i've read that some AV apps don't suite TS very well.
What are you all using?
Also what other products do you use to help secure your TS boxes from the usual spyware/virus issues?
Cheers
Grant.

If this list is anything to go by you should be fine with Nod Terminal Server and Citrix Compatible Anti-Virus Software
According to the Nod manuals, there seems to be TS options, so I would assume that there is TS support.
