Yes, you can install the SEP client on the same server, and create any needed exception policy. For example, if you are using an embedded database, you are advised to exclude the database folder. <br />

So I exclude whatever folders these guys reside in? Or else it'll pull the server down yes?

1) SEP will automatically exclude exchange related folders<br />
<br />
2) You need to exclude SQL 2005 folders

Hi, I have a windows sbs 2003 server running Symantec Endpoint Manager on it.<br />
<br />
Would like to know if the sys admins out there install the client version on the server itself to run as a antivirus solution or do you leave the server out of the picture and only install the client version on the LAN PCs only?<br />
<br />
The client version obviously checks every file and I don't want it to pull the server down.<br />
<br />
Any comments are welcomed.<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager on SBS Server

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.

Anti-Virus Apps

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
