http://www.openantivirus.org/projects.php is the project home for samba-vscan.

It has this to say.....

samba-vscan is a proof-of-concept module for Samba, which uses the VFS 
(virtual file system) features of Samba 2.2.x/3.0 to provide an on-access 
Samba anti-virus. Of course, Samba has to be compiled with VFS support. It 
currently works with ClamAV (clamd/libclamav), FRISK F-Prot Daemon, F-Secure 
AV, H+BEDV AntiVir, Kaspersky AntiVirus, McAfee/NAI uvscan, mks32, 
OpenAntiVirus ScannerDaemon, Sophos Sweep, Symantec AntiVirus Engine (via 
ICAP) or Trend Micro. The latest release is 0.3.6b. samba-vscan is 
maintained by Rainer Link.

samba-vscan is included in recent SUSE Linux / SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 
versions. Unofficial samba-vscan RPMs for SuSE Linux / SLES / UL1 can be 
found at SUSE's FTP server for Samba 2.2 / 3.0. SUSE ships samba-vscan since 
SUSE Linux 8.1 or so, RPMs for Mandrake Linux should be available and an 
eisfair package as well. samba-vscan is also in the FreeBSD ports 
collection. Some unofficial debs for Debian woody can be grabbed here, but 
this debs should be used for Samba packages built by Samba.org only! (thanks 
to Simo). A FreeBSD 5.3 package (self-built) can be grabbed here. Use at 
your own risk.
