After purchasing or renewing a license for ESET server solutions for Linux (ESET Mail Security, ESET Server Security, or ESET Gateway Security), you will receive an email containing your ESET-issued Username, Password, and License Key.
To download, unpack, install and configure your ESET server solution, follow the steps below:
Download the installation package for your ESET server solution:
Use the following command to run the installation package from the shell (replace packagename with the name of the ESET installation package you downloaded in step 1):
sh ./packagename
To configure your ESET server solution, edit esets.cfg
, verifying that your ESET-issued Username and Password are entered correctly when you do so. Click one of the links below for your ESET server solution manual, with complete instructions on configuring esets.cfg
:
Import your ESET license (not the one labeled ERA) file using the following string of commands:
sudo /opt/eset/esets/sbin/esets_lic --list
sudo /opt/eset/esets/sbin/esets_lic --import nod32.lic
sudo /opt/eset/esets/sbin/esets_lic --list
The last command will return your license information. For example:
/etc/opt/eset/esets/license/esets_5ee573.lic: ESET Mail Security, 2015-01-02 01:00:00, ESET
/etc/opt/eset/esets/license/esets_e805ec.lic: ESET Gateway Security, 2015-01-02 01:00:00, ESET
/etc/opt/eset/esets/license/esets_a905cf.lic: ESET Server Security, 2015-01-02 01:00:00, ESET
Start the ESETS service (daemon) using the following command:
/etc/init.d/esets start
Verify esets_daemon
is running properly from the shell ps, using the following command (the specific parameters may vary depending on your operating system):
Linux OS:
ps -C esets_daemon
BSD OS:
ps aux | grep esets
