qmail-scanner on Fedora 1 (has anyone gotten it working?)

[Gregg Smith]

Kelly,

I am also running a Fedora 1 system but did not need to find any other RPM's
to make qmail-scanner work with qmail.  I was wrong before, the C wrapper is
in the Qmail-Scanner source directory in the contrib folder.  Edit
qmail-scanner-queue.c for directions on how to use the C wrapper.  Basically
do a make and make install and you will have a file called
qmail-scanner-queue in /var/qmail/bin.  Then just point to that instead of
qmail-scanner-queue.pl.  Works great with no worries about whether suidperl
will still be around.

I'm using both Spamassassin and clamav as well.

Hi Gregg,

I am following a modified install of www.qmailrocks.org both require
qmail-scanner to work with spamassassin and clamv.

I am pretty new to linux but I want to cut down on my spam and help with
virus protection on my domains. So this is why I am using the above.

thanks
Kelly

Suidperl is deprecated, see the Perl web site.  Better off using the C
wrapper included in the qmail source files.
