It *COULD* be a hands-off upgrade as long there are no upgrade notes listed at http://wiki.clamav.net/Main/UpgradeInstructions for the new version. If there are notes about the version you are upgrading to, you can plan on clamd not starting after the upgrade until you modify your clamd.conf to account for the changes in the upgrade notes.

Barry Just meant it as typical cander. Not to hands on compared to some just change clam.conf.rpmnew to clam.conf and be glad that all you have to do. Some things are a *pain*. Look 3 days back for my post on clamav not upgrading. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos -- ~/john OpenPGP Sig:BA91F079 ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
Re: [CentOS] ClamAV version(s)
Quoting Sam Drinkard [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I had clamav-milter working as well as clamd, then for some reason clamd stopped and would not create the socket. After much hair pulling, I finally tracked the problem(s) down to /etc/clamd.conf. After commenting all the stuff out that was providing errors, it is now working again. I had somehow mixed versions from sourceforge and centos, and when I could not get things to update correctly, I removed clamav-milter and reinstalled it. My question is about clamd. clamd --version yields ClamAV 0.88.7/2314/Sun Dec 10 15:02:13 2006 Is this the most current version available from centos? In the logs, there is a note about it being drastically outdated and pointed me to an FAQ file on clamd. I don't want to go through that hassle of mixing repos and get all fouled up again. The version you have is very outdated. rpmforge has updated packages that work well. I highly recommend them.
