[clamav-users] Untit Testing
I've recently installed .97.3 on an SGI Origin 3000 running TRIX v6.5.28 using gcc 3.2.1. (I did need to make some source file modifications). I was able to run clamscan against a directory seemingly without error. However, I would like to run some tests which would indicate catching an infected file without actually putting an infected file on our system. This is a totally Trusted Irix environment. I've had problems trying to build the check package as recommended in the ClamAV documentation in this IRIXS environment. Any suggestions as to how run some unit tests that would indicate that an infected file would actually be found? --Dave Reynolds __ ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml

GCC 3.3, 3.4 was working I think, I don't think I ever used gcc 3.2.1, it might be buggy or might not be. (I did need to make some source file modifications).

Those are not actual viruses, just the ClamAV-Test-File. Best regards, --Edwin ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml

It's not a virus and meant to check if a/your virusscanner is working. http://www.eicar.org/86-0-Intended-use.html -- Rob ___ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://www.clamav.net/support/ml
