I had approximately the same results with SMTP and
Interscan Virus wall under CVP. I would periodically
just quite receiving mail and need to restart the FW
server. In retrospect I think this may have been an
issue with kernel memory depletion but I'm not really
sure.

Unfortunately Trend's support is pretty much useless
on the subject of CVP. The answer every time was have
you tried upgrading to a newer build and if I had they
would tell me it should work. No amount of additional
questioning would get another answer. Checkpoint's
support was more helpful but I gave up before I ever
got a solution. I am planning on rebuilding my Trend
server in CVP mode again in about a month to see if my
move from NG to NG AI (R55) or moving to the newest
version of Interscan will improve this. I really liked
CVP mode when it worked.

Overall I like the Trend software but the support
leaves me with the impression that they have only one
goal and that is to get off of the phone and on to the
next customer.

Hello.
Working with Interscan Viruswall in CVP mode gave us a
lot of problems,
mainly with mail stuck in a queue.
The HTTP and FTP scanning are very problematic when
using CVP.

I really recommend not using CVP, and working with
Viruswall (or InterScan
Messaging Security Suite) in stand-alone mode. It
works perfectly with no
issues at all.
