From a desktop browser window, connect to the McAfee VirusScan Enterprise for Linux (VSEL) Monitor (WEB interface) of the Linux system being reviewed and logon with the nails user account. In the VSEL WEB Monitor, review tasks under "View", "Scheduled Tasks". With the System Administrator's assistance, determine which task is intended as the regularly scheduled scan task. Click on the task, and then click "Modify". Under "2. What to Scan", "Path", verify all mounted volumes or "\" is specified and the "Scan Sub-Directories" check box is selected. If all mounted volumes or "\" is not specified under "Path "or the "Scan Sub-Directories" check box is not selected for every "Path" specified, this is a finding. To validate without the Web interface, access the Linux system being reviewed, either at the console or by a SSH connection. At the command line, navigate to /var/opt/NAI/LinuxShield/etc. Enter the command "grep "nailsd.profile.ODS.scanNWFiles" ods.cfg" If the response given for "nailsd.profile.ODS.scanNWFiles" is not "true", this is a finding.
