Required Packages

Starting with version 4, 4PSA Clean Server features the 4Grid technology. This means that technically it is possible to install the ClamAV antivirus engine on another server, and 4PSA Clean Server will connect to this server in order to scan messages. If you want to have the antivirus engine on the same machine, you will have to install ClamAV antivirus locally. If you want more details about the distributed 4PSA Clean Server installation, check this KB article.

4PSA Clean Server 4 is packaged in the following installation formats:

  1. RPM packages for RPM capable Linux distributions. Available at http://plesk.4psa.com/downloads/

  2. Shell installer for Debian, Ubuntu and FreeBSD distributions. Available for download in the Support Zone (after login).

  3. Virtuozzo EZ templates for installation on virtualized systems. Available at http://plesk.4psa.com/vz
