Connection Settings File

Top  Previous  Next

The connection settings file is a special file that stores parameters that configure connection between Dr.Web Anti-virus for Linux and the central protection server.

This file is supplied by the administrator of the Anti-virus network or the Internet service provider (if the latter provides support for the central anti-virus protection service).

You can use this file to activate Dr.Web Anti-virus for Linux when connecting it to the central protection server (in this case, you cannot use Anti-virus in Standalone mode without purchasing additional license).

Activation via Connection to Central Protection Server

If the Internet service provider or network administrator submitted a file with settings of connection to the central protection server, you can activate Anti-virus by specifying the file path.

To specify a path to the connection settings file

open License Manager and start the registration procedure by clicking the Activate license button;
select the Other activation types option;
specify the file path in the displayed entry field.
