I was talking over this topic with a friend a couple of days ago and he 
is doing all his virus scanning on the Unix server, as it make sense to 
scan the files directly on the file server.  (They're running SAMBA on a 
Solaris box.)    Virus file updates for Sophos are retrieved by wget, 
and used by the scanning engine when it runs via cron.  At present they 
are relying on the virus software running on the PCs to intercept any 
viruses in newly arriving email.

This is not an RPM level of ease, but it seems to be working reasonably 
well for them.
