not afaik

You can however configure a remote server you own to download the new 
patterns, and retrieve them via ssl to your company box!


Anyways, patterns are digitally signed anyway.
Explain the policymakers in your company that retrieving over ssl is useless.

[Clamav-users] freshclam not round-robin DatabaseMirror

2006-02-09 Thread Niek

Hi,

I have this box with bind running on it.
The system is configured to use 127.0.0.1 as nameserver (bind).
Freshclam is configured with DatabaseMirror db.nl.clamav.net.

However the freshclam log is full with updates only from: db.nl.clamav.net 
(IP: 62.133.206.90)


db.nl.clamav.net is a round-robin RR with 7 ips, but freshclam only uses the 
first ip.


Running host db.nl.clamav.net on the shell constantly randomizes the list of 
7 ips.


How do I get freshclam to randomly pick an ip from the round-robin record?

Regards,
Niek

Let's not rule out the possibility of dns cache poisoning.  If you're

nobody claiming to have seen such a thing, but it is _possible_ and so
therefore it should at least be looked at.

Thanks, that is indeed the problem. Now it says Trojan.LdPinch.JM1-3 FOUND.
I'm using clamav as a milter with sendmail. I can't seem to find a way 
to do this same trick with clamd of clamav-milter. No option in 
clamd.conf either.

I seem to be getting more and more of these rar files. Is there any way 
of scanning these using clamav-milter?
unfortunately, the --unrar parameter is for clamscan only.

clamdscan uses the clamd daemon to perform scans, and since it runs as user

For instance, my .tvtime subdirectory in my home will be scanned by clamscan, 
but will generate errors using clamdscan.  I understand why, but isn't this 
some sort of shortcoming of this design?

I will use clamscan, not clamdscan, until this can be addressed.
Run clamd as a user with enough privileges.

Hi,
I'm pretty independent.
Clamav is meant as a MTA virus scanner.
And at that it does a top job on my production servers.
I don't need a commercial product scanning mail any more.
So, the only window of opportunity for viruses is between
the time of outbreak, till there are defs available.
And even at that, clamav usually beats the commercial products.
If you want to convince your boss, ask him if he'll agree to this.
Setup clam on your MTA, and after clam has scanned it, let your
preferred commercial virus scanner scan the mail.
Anything that arrives at the commercial scanner, clamav thought was
clean.

Brian,
If it was updating automatically, you either had freshclam daemonized,
or you ran freshclam from crontab.
It's more likely you were using freshclam -d than freshclam via the crontab.
Check your startup scripts for freshclam.
I'd advise you to update clamav to 0.75.1 (latest stable release),
or 0.80rc3 (latest release candidate which will detect the new jpeg
virus).

Clamav is for backdoors as well.
But it is especially designed for opensource smtp gateways.
Instead of talking on how clamav doesn't detect your backdoors collection,

Jup, huge difference: clamscan loads the definitions,

Clamd runs as a daemon, so the definitions are read once,
and clamdscan feeds clamd.
On busy servers clamscan isn't advisable.

I don't believe Symantec updates their definitions more than once a week.  
Certainly not for us poor home users.
you can update all you want, but the file won't change.
The following are my experiences with new defs from Symantec:
Liveupdate: 1-2 times per week, they save up the 'non important' viruses.
Intelligent updater: 1-2 per day.
Beta intelligent updater: multiple times per day.
The catch is, that Joe Homeuser only uses liveupdate.
If he wants to stay up-to-date, he has to grab the (beta)
intelligent updates manually. Run them manually (this can be scripted,
Symantec has some batch files on their website if you search long enough.)
Symantec's corporate products can be configured to update more often,
than standard liveupdate.

odd problem since upgrading to 1.23, with coincidental update to clamav

Over the past 3-4 days I've seen clamscan processes hanging around,

I notice clamscan options within QS have changed from:

--max-space=10;

to:
my $clamscan_options=-r -m --unzip --unrar --unzoo --lha 
--disable-summary --max-recursion=10 --max-space=10;

but I can run any of the above options from cmd line on the orig. email 
msg w/o problem.

Anyone seeing similar problems with thier QS setup?
QS log
Doug,
I would recommend clamdscan (together with clamd) instead of clamscan.
When you run clamscan, it has to initialize the virusdb every time it runs.
Set up clamd, and configure QS to use clamdscan instead of clamscan.
You will see huge load/io improvements.

daily 444 detects the price zip as Trojan.RunMe.
The price.exe has some urls inside it, if you wget that 2.jpg

Matt,
Yes, you will not catch as much viruses with 0.70 as with 0.75.1.
Latest mydoom with borked mime for e.g.
Also newer versions tend to fix many other things, such as
better memory management.
It is very advisable to upgrade.

Hi,
I got a suspicious mail this morning which looked very like a virus, and
I'm now receiving reports from a neighbouring institution that they are

The mail goes something like this:-

Dear user of acu.ac.uk,
We have received reports that your e-mail account was used to send a
huge amount of junk e-mail messages during this week.
Most likely, your computer was infected and now runs a trojaned proxy
server.
Please follow the instruction in order to keep your computer safe.
Sincerely yours,
The acu.ac.uk support team.

It also contains at attached zip file, which contains a file named
amcluv.htm(lots of embedded nulls).com
The neighbouring institution had their domain in the mail, instead of
mine, so the virus appears to be attempting a bit of socian engineering.
Also, the from address was forged to be from MAILER-DAEMON at my domain.
Has anyone else seem this? I've submitted it to the ClamAV database, and
received a thank you note, telling me the submission has not been
added, and giving no information as to why not, which is less helpful
than I'd have hoped... The online scanner does not currently pick it up.
Is there a way I can manually extract a signature to add to my local
database, if ClamAV won't do it?
Mike.
It is mydoom.o (mydoom.m some call it) which is detected by latest clamav defs.

Version 0.67 detects the virus correctly, 0.70 doesn't. Comparing the

If you use clamd, it can take up to one hour before clamd selfchecks itself,
and rereads the definition files. Selfcheck can be set in clamav.conf.

We have Symantec Corporate Ed AV running on

Meaning they were not stopped by ClamAV.
A search on the database of ClamAV results
with nothing with those same variants.
ClamAV works perfectly fine with other
viruses though, like those SomeFool viruses.


Being the NetSky _IS_ SomeFool, i wonder what your saying here.  If they are
being blocked, how are they being detected by symantec?
he said: those virusses are caught by norton on workstations,
clamav didn't catch them on the mailserver. Given that the workstations
received them by mail.
