Slight exaggeration, 2 years. If you aren’t using a private safebrowing engine as shown in the blog post below. Disable safebrowsing in your freshclam.conf. A future version of Freshclam will help you with this. Don’t wait! Get rid of those 403’s today!

I noticed that freshclam had problems when it tried to get safebrowsing.cvd and that it tried every five seconds for three or five times. But it gave up relatively quickly and is falling back to it's regularly scheduled once an hour cycle. the problem i see is that i don't know if it's my IP in particular, all of linode's IP addresses or a subnet... My experience has been that Cloudflare has usually been good about per IP filtering vs per IP /block/ filtering. on the other hand if all of Linode is blocked then there's not much i can do... Per the freshclam.conf man page, it looks like the code's default is once every two hours. I would hope -> expect that to be satisfactory. Though comments in the man page say to check the safebrowsing file every 30 minutes. -- Grant. . . . unix || die _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list clamav-users@lists.clamav.net https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
