Is there really a need for Antivirus measures? There's VERY few viruses on
Linux. What about running it on the user's box?

Cheers,

Well, I hate to admit it, but I use Norton AntiVirus.  I have played
long and hard at getting the corporate edition running on a Samba
domain.  Unfortunately, no amounts of tweaking with Wine was able to get
it to work properly.  I've had to run a vmware session with the Norton
AV installed on a w2k vm.  As for day-to-day linux virus protection, I
use host.all ;).
