Though rare, still can have problems on a Linux platform with viruses, thinking the recent Samba Server problem. Little funny though considering Samba is to emulate a Windows file server.

Strange, considering the 65 samba servers I run, I've never heard of this. And I do keep up on the security notices a lot. I have heard of windows machines passing virus around by a samba share, but never the actual linux machine being affected.

Issue we had was with Sality.ao. Guess technically Linex itself wasn't vulnerable but could host infected files.
