Greetings,
I've been using ClamAV for months without any problems. I use it in
conjunction with MailScanner to scan our client's email. However today I
noticed a plethora of messages being marked as "clean" but that really did
have viruses attached. I posted them to the web-based checker and sure
enough the virus database should be catching them. I'm thinking maybe my
FreshClam isn't updating. So...

Can someone tell me how to find out what database version I cam using? I
searched the docs and manpages but couldn't find anything.

And also can someone help me debug the following output from freshclam?

cheers,
Colin

At this point, it just hangs.
