Mark, I'll answer your questions below...

If so, MIMEDefang should've detected ClamAV and should be all set to use it. Edit your clamav.conf file in /usr/local/etc/ so that it runs under user "defang". You should be able to start the clamd daemon by typing "service clamd start" at the command prompt, or by starting it directly from the init script in /etc/init.d/. The clamd daemon needs to be running in order for MIMEDefang to call on it automatically for virus scanning. > 2 - How do I get clamav dat file updates? Create a cron.hourly script that executes the freshclam script. Edit your crontab in /etc so that your cron.hourly runs at 15 to 45 minutes after the hour or something because the ClamAV update servers are busy at the top of the hour. > 3 - Will clamav scan within zip files? Yes. Take a look at the clamav.conf file -- it's usually located in /usr/local/etc/clamav.conf. ClamAV WILL scan both ZIP and RAR files, although RAR scanning is somewhat buggy (to my knowledge). Hope this helps. - Chris _______________________________________________ Visit http://www.mimedefang.org and http://www.canit.ca MIMEDefang mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.roaringpenguin.com/mailman/listinfo/mimedefang
