Hi Ayman,

As a general rule of thumbs, there should be no limitation to install Kaspersky on Windows 2000 with ACS 4.2.

In the past we saw issues with some anitviruses, such as Norton for example, blocking the ACS services.

Unfortunately, all AVs and releases are too different from one another to build a specific compatibility matrix.

As said, nothing should prevent ACS 4.2 to work when Kaspersky is installed, as long as Kaspersky does not block any specific services/ports.

Regards,

Fede

Hi Ayman,

Unfortunately, all AVs and releases are too different from one another to build a specific compatibility matrix.

As a recommendation, Kaspersky should not block the ACS services and the standard ports for RADIUS (UDP 1645, 1646, 1812, 1813) and TACACS+ (TCP 49).
This is not specific for ACS, but simply a general good practice to RADIUS/TACACS servers functionality with AVs.

Fede
