Hi, Stephen,
first of all, thanks for your reply.

Hi, all,
running:
ClamAV 0.88.6/2405/Tue Jan 2 09:39:39 2007
on Solaris 9
During the weekend we had problems on two (out of four) mailservers
which run clamav, where freshclam 'died'. i.e. the freshclam process was
gone. We use db.nl.clamav.net (on one mailserver) and db.de.clamav.net
(on the other mailserver) as mirrors. On system 1, in the freshclam
logfile shows:
[snip]
connect_error: getsockopt(SO_ERROR): fd=0 error=145: Connection timed out
[snip]
connect_error: getsockopt(SO_ERROR): fd=0 error=146: Connection refused
nonblock_connect: connect timing out (30 secs)
[snip]
Any help appreciated. AFAIK 0.88.7 is a security related upgrade and
will not change the way freshclam behaves?
The change was introduced in 0.88.6 - freshclam was not changed in
0.88.7, as far as I can tell.
Indeed, we had similar (but not necessarily the same) problems under
0.88.5, but much more frequently. Version 0.88.6 solved the problem of
freshclam dying for 90 percent, but now and then the problem shows up.
I don't see any changes that should make
freshclm go away off the top of my head. Can you get a core dump? Or
even a logfile with timestamps so it's easier to see what happened when?
No core dump was procuded. Furthermore, I tried to enable debugging in
freshclam.conf, by editing the file, removing the comment from the Debug
statement and restarting freshclam, but until now I don't see any
difference regarding the verbosity of the logging in freshclam.log. Does
'Debug' in freshclam.conf require a parameter, like 'enable', or 'on'?
Couldn't find this in the docs.
