John,
My solution is not available to an all NT shop, but I export all filesystems to a UNIX box with Samba and re-export with Samba to an NT box for scanning.
The details are: (on the NetApp) export with root permission to the UNIX box use the option cifs.nfs_root_ignore_acl (on the Samba server use the following options) valid users = nt_admin_who_will_do_the_scanning admin users = nt_admin_who_will_do_the_scanning veto files = /.snapshot/.snapshots/ follow symlinks = No dont descend = .snapshot, ./.snapshot
Hope this helps, Paul Lupa

Hi All:
I've read NetApp just partnered with the big 3 AV vendors [http://quicken.excite.com/investments/news/story/bw/?story=/news/stories/bw /20001129/a2086.htm&symbol=NTAP]
BUT, having had to dig myself out of a loveletter reincarnation recently, I'm looking for some input on what other sysadmins do to keep their NetApps free of buggies. I just want something to tide us over until the vaporware AVOnTap becomes a reality.
TIA!
