Checking the local network for viruses?

Question

Computer networks

Help please, there is a peer-to-peer local network on each computer there are antiviruses, there is a file washer on ubuntu, a samba server is opened, so I want to check the file cleaner for viruses, can I mount it as a network drive in Windows and scan it with an antivirus? or do I need to go directly to the physical samba server with a flash drive or other software and check there already!?

Answer 1

At a minimum, you can install an antivirus on your server. How to drive over the network virtually all the files that are there.
As an option, install an antivirus with a different set of signatures, so if the antivirus on the PC does not see malware, it is likely that the antivirus on the file cleaner will see it, or see it earlier.
The idea to mount a network drive is feasible, but what's the point of driving data over the network once again.

Answer 2

clamav can be installed and checked through it on the sambaserver itself
