Hi Mike,

in /etc/group you (him) should show something like this:

[...]
Debian-exim:x:102:clamav,amavis
clamav:x:104:Debian-exim,amavis
amavis:x:105:Debian-exim,clamav
[...]

Then the deliveries will work fine without need to change folder permissions or alter owners by default.

Rgds,

jonathan

OK,

You may need to remove one of those d's from clamdd :-)

Check the logs for clam and spamassassin. Under Debian by default they are /var/log/clamav and /var/log/mail (I think). You can then see if they are being scanned.

The only problem you may come across is that clam sometimes doesnt have permission to write into exim's spool directory, you will have to alter the users / groups concerned.

Cheers
Mike

Hello Mike,
thanks a lot. So I changed the entries to:
av_scanner = clamdd:/var/run/clamav.ctl
spamd_address = 127.0.0.1 783

How can I test, that it's working now?

Regards,
Oliver

Hi,
SpamD almost always listens on port 783 (but can be configured to
listen on a unix socket).  ClamAV listens on a unix socket by
default, but can be configured to open a TCP socket (the default is
3310).  You can check their respective config files or do something
like lsof -i and grep for clam and spam respectively...

Cheers,
Mike

Hello,
I cahnged from exim-daemon-light to exim-daemon-heavy, so the
entries for
av_scanner and spamd_address are now being accepted by Exim!

My next problem is only that I do not now if these entries are
correct? Are
SpamAssassin and ClamAV listening on port 25 or 783?

Oliver

hi,

check if your version of exim is exim-light or exim-heavy and so
forth... you probrably have the good config file but the wrong
packages.

Hello,
I did:
apt-get install clamav
apt-get install clamav-freshclam

and I assume that the Debian package was compiled with
WITH_CONTENT_SCAN
so, I should be able to set the options but each time I edit the
Exim
config and do: # invoke-rc.d exim4 reload"
the result is:

2005-10-01 22:47:50 Exim configuration error in line 92

I still cannot set the following options in:
/etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template:

av_scanner = clamd:server.windfinder.com 25
spamd_address = 127.0.0.1 783

After doing invoke-rc.d exim4 reload I always get:

Might it be that the Debian Exim 4.50 package is not compiled with
content-scanning features? Please help! thanks!

Oliver
