GWAVA Abends On New Installs On NetWare On CT_scanproc

After installing GWAVA on NetWare and creating a scanner, GWAVA abends after a couple of minutes.

GWAVA uses many types of scanning techniques to determine if a message should be classified as SPAM.  One of these services is IP Reputation.  This service can only be used on a Linux machine.  Follow these steps to disable IP Reutation on the NetWare server;

1) Log into the GWAVA Management Console

2) Click on Server/Scanner Management | (Your Server) | Manage Scanners | (Your Scanner) | Scanning Configuration | Antispam | IP Reputation.

3) Uncheck the Enable IP Reputation Event box and then click Save Changes

4) Since GWAVA had already crashed, restart GWAVA (gwavadn) and then start GWAVA (gwavaup)
