[qmailtoaster] Clamav Database/Signature Question

[Ron Allison]

I am having a hard time figuring out what is up with my Clamav installation.  It looks to me like I have an issue somewhere, but my knowledge of Clamav is pretty limited.  Specifically it looks like I have a problem in my databases or in the loading of them somewhere.  What I show right now if I run the sigtool to check the number of signatures is: [admin]# sigtool --list-sig | wc -l 294787 If I look at my log files I see: Last Status: main.inc is up to date (version: 44, sigs: 133163, f-level: 20, builder: sven) Downloading daily-4603.cdiff [100%] daily.inc updated (version: 4603, sigs: 28186, f-level: 21, builder: ccordes) Database updated (161349 signatures) from db.local.clamav.net (IP: 208.67.80.27) Received signal: wake up It looks to me like I'm loading more signatures than I need, but maybe I'm just reading that wrong.  I've been looking all morning and I can't figure out what best to do with Clamav.  Is there a way to dump your existing database and have Freshclam download a new copy?  Would that be a good idea? Any input you have would be appreciated. I guess I should say that I cannot find any issues in my log files and Freshclam and Clamav appear to be working fine.  I am seeing Clamav chew up a bunch of memory which is what got me to digging around and I stumbled on my signatures show such a high number. Thanks.
