RE: [Clamav-users] clamav rpm package

2005-10-09 Thread D.J. Fan


Hi all,

anybody knows where I can get an rpm package for clamav 0.87 for redhat 9? 
I would rather install an rpm than build one from source...(which I already 
have but can't seem to run the daemon properly..i.e. /usr/local/sbin/clamd 
start doesnt give an ok nor an error message but when I list down the 
processes it doesnt seem to be running...



thanks!

I just finished trying to upgrade ports on this FreeBSD system, and am 
getting an unusual error in the logs for Amavisd-new.


Clam Antivirus-clamd: Error reading from /var/run/clamav/clamd: Resource 
temporarily unavailable at (eval 53) line 253, GEN8 line 1., retrying (2)





Any ideas?  Help?



Appears to be the usual problem with file permissions.
See if this link provides insight and a possible solution:

BTW, I have found that even after my Debian system is set up correctly and I 
have restarted the clamd and amavisd-new daemons, I still get an access 
denied error that only seems to solve itself with a reboot.

Re: [Clamav-users] Clamav 0.86 and APT-GET

2005-06-23 Thread D.J. Fan


 This is my first post to list.

 I have problems to get the new version using APT on Debian based system,
 I make an apt-get update, next apt-get install clamav says that I'm up
 to date, looking on my cache (apt-cache showpkg clamav) they say package
 version 0.85.1.


Hmm, I installed from unstable today around 2:00pm.
Try 'apt-cache policy clamav'
Have you included unstable sources in /etc/apt/sources.list ?
and given usnstable low priority in /etc/apt/preferences ?

See:
http://jaqque.sbih.org/kplug/apt-pinning.html

ClamAV is the one and only thing I install from unstable.



So, you have publically shamed me into getting my act back together :)

0.86.1 is up on people.debian.org/~sgran.  voltile may take some time
longer.

I think you do a great job, I don't think there is an easier way to install 
clamav than the Debian way.

RE: [Clamav-users] Kudos to the ClamAV team

2005-06-03 Thread D.J. Fan
Just wanted to toss out a kudos to the ClamAV team.  ClamAV has caught 
every variant of Mytob thrown at it so far as W32/Mytob.AS, while most 
other AV scanners struggle to keep their signatures up to date and end up 
being a day or more late in detecting variants.  Some, such as Symantec 
still don't detect most of the variants.


Great work getting it right the first time.  And thank you for all the work 
and effort all of you guys put into this project.


Ryan


I'll second that. My BitDefender caught the very first few before ClamAV did 
but then I use cron for updates and it may have just been a timing issue. 
Trend Micro and Symantec both continue to not detect 40 or so a day for my 
small site. What the heck would I do without you saviors? The giants are 
ponderous sloths. You guys are nimble Ninjas.

It looks like you run are running amavisd-new as user 'amavis'.
If this is true, try adding user 'clamav' to the amavis group:

Re: [Clamav-users] mail delay

2005-04-04 Thread D.J. Fan
Actually, the other way around, add amavis to the clamav group,
usermod -G clamav amavis
then add:
AllowSupplementaryGroups
to the clamd.conf file, and restart both clamd and amavis-new.
gpasswd works differently, and is safer to use in this case than usermod.
If someone does not capitalize the G it can lead to problems.
gpasswd -a user group
But let me be more succinct. They easiest way to solve file permission
issues when trying to get amavisd-new and clamd working together is
to make the clamav user a member of your amavisd-new group. For
example, if your clamav user is 'clamav' and your amavisd-new group
is 'vscan', you can easily accomplish this by running:
# gpasswd -a clamav vscan
to verify, run
# groups clamav
There are at least a few other things that MUST be done.
1) Verify the value after CONTSCAN in amavisd.conf matches the
  LocalSocket setting in clamd.conf. Change it in amavisd.conf if it
  does not match.
2) Make sure LocalSocket is enabled and TCPSocket is disabled in
  clamd.conf.
3) Make sure AllowSupplementaryGroups is enabled in clamd.conf
and restart both clamd and amavis-new.

This is an old option, which is no longer used by clamav.
Just remove that line from /etc/clamav/clamav.conf and it should work.
What was your old version? Please file a detailed bug report at 
bugs.debian.org.

Thank you

I would guess that when you upgrade and you choose to keep
your old configuration file, and that file has stuff in it that is no
longer used, it only makes sense that you would get an error.
Take a peek at
http://www.xmission.com/~jmcrc/clamav-amavisd-new.html
and look at the configuration for that box.
Maybe it will give you ideas on how to change some of the
settings in the config files to bring them more up to date.

Thats why the new method of using DNS

I am not a DNS expert by any means and I may be way off in left

There are
Without knowing for sure how these devices handle the DNS

configured to use a real a DNS server to obtain records, but I would think
many internal servers are configured to obtain records from gateway
proxies/routers/appliances and if configured to do so, and these devices
do not obey rules, the records they see may be 12 hours old or older.
Just something to consider. I could be wrong.
You can choose the DNS server you want to use for your virus scanner, can't 
you?
Yes
DNS is definitely the method of choice to distribute such information. It 
has been designed for fast distribution of small information chunks, and 
TTL has been there forever, so any implementation not respecting these 
values should be scheduled for deletion anyway.
I have no evidence that this problem actually exists so the point
may be moot, but if there are gateway devices that ignore TTL
in favor of their own proprietory cache mechanism then at least
the user should be informed of this possibility and asked to
reconfigure their resolver to point to a real DNS server.
Questions are:
Is this in fact a potential issue?
If it is, how will the end user be notified that they may need to
reconfigure their resolver?

Re: [Clamav-users] Downloading clam virus definition files automatically

2004-08-20 Thread D.J. Fan
But i have a problem here. Assume that clam updates are published at
6:10 Pm. I check for new updates at 6:05 so the next time i gonna
check is at 7:05 it just means that after 55 mins i got the updates.
And within this 55 minutes thousands and thousands of say ..a worm
which is in wild arrives to my mailserver and clam does not detect it
 it passes out what do i do ?
As far as viruses go, we all have a problem. You could get a virus hours
before ANY anti-virus software provider is aware of it. That's just the way
it is. I use a total of three different scanners -
Trend Micro, Clamav and Norton on the desktop. Do I feel safe? - never.

also, where can i configure clamav to send a notification if when a virus 
is detected?
You configure amavisd to send notification.
Uncomment and edit to meet your needs:
# $virus_admin = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
You may also want to configure and enable:
#$mailfrom_notify_admin = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
#$mailfrom_notify_recip = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
#$mailfrom_notify_spamadmin = [EMAIL PROTECTED];

RE: [Clamav-users] freshclam --quiet warnings/bugs

2004-08-14 Thread D.J. Fan
It should tell you that it's trying again.  Yes, it does that in the
syslog, and the --quiet tells it to be less noisy, but for those of us
running cronjobs, the *only* output we want is failure notices, and any
corrective action it might take.  I think it should be a simple change
to have the Trying again...\n line come out even with --quiet set.
As a corrolary to the above, it might be nice if it said that a retry
was successful.  (But ONLY a retry... I don't want to get emailed on the
normal case.)  That would ease the stress on admins seeing these
warnings, since we otherwise have to search syslogs or dig through
source code to see whether these errors were fatal.
I would love to get emailed a notice when the virus database has
been updated, and when it tried but failed.

Re: [Clamav-users] HOWTO chroot clamav

2004-08-11 Thread D.J. Fan
Nigel Horne wanted us to know:
Should, I presume, read --disable-clamav and why have you used with-user 
twice?

Sounds right (fix spelling and only one with-user).
It seems to be Linux specific.
Definitely is.
maybe should be
./configure --disable-clamav --with-user=amavis --with-group=amavis
