I'm wondering if anyone knows a fairly straightforward way to get ClamAV running on FC4. I got the rpms through yum, but this did not actually install a daemon for clamd. I was eventually able to hack a script into the init.d folder that runs clamd, and I have clamav-milter running with
Did you read through the documentation the packages ship with? The Fedora Extras packages have extra readmes.
sendmail. While I have all of this stuff running without errors (services are all ok, as far as I can tell, sendmail is hooked into clamav-milter). However I have two problems.
First, I'm getting emails sent to root with the following warning:
WARNING: update of clamav database is disabled; please see '/etc/sysconfig/freshclam' for information how to enable the periodic update resp. how to turn off this message.
I've looked at that file, and it's not very explanatory...does anyone know how to get freshclam enabled?
The clamav-update package ships with a cron job, running every 3 hours. As explained in the /etc/sysconfig/freshclam file you have to remove or comment the line
FRESHCLAM_DELAY=disabled-warn
to activate automatic signature updates.
Second, I tried sending the eicar test virus through my sendmail server, but as far as I can tell, nothing was detected...and no logs 'at all' are being generated by the clamav-milter service (even though the config is telling it to). What do I need to get sendmail/clamav-milter working in harmony? In this case, I'd almost prefer errors, so I'd have an idea what might be the problem.
Without seeing your sendmail.mc configuration regarding the clamav-milter setup it is hard to say what is going wrong.
