HI Guys,


I need small clarification in clamav integration with qmail. Please 
tell me, what variables & variables parameter needs to be configured 
in qmail service directory for clamav.

[Clamav-users] All quiet on the virus front?

2009-11-11 Thread fchan

Hello,
Ever since about 10-Nov-2009 1810UTC I haven't gotten any virus hits 
on my mail server and I'm checking if anyone seen the same thing. 
Before that time, I used to get about 1000 virus hits per day so are 
the virus writers/spammers gone away or this is the quiet before the 
storm?  I still get spam but none with any viruses for the last day.

Here is my current freshclam message:

Re: [Clamav-users] question about Clamav anti virus for old mac OS 9.2

2009-06-22 Thread fchan
Hi Julie,
I don't think clamav existed when Mac OS 8(1997) & 9 (1999) where out 
and clamav can't really be compiled on Mac OS 8 or 9 since Mac didn't 
have gcc for the Mac OS at that time. Can someone at clamav correct 
me if I'm wrong on the first release of clamav.
You can use install 10.4.11 along with your older Mac classic 
environment (if space on your hard drive allows) and then install 
Developer Tools  on 10.4.11 and then compile clamav on the 10.4.11 
side and then scan the entire disk the from the 10.4.11 environment. 
You can boot to either older classic (8.6 or 9.2) or 10.4.11 as 
needed. Remember 10.4.11 will very slow on the G3 systems so be 
patient.
You can't use 10.4.11 with Mac 8.6 as the classic environment (use 
8.6 applications while running 10.4.11) but with Mac 9.2 you can.
I have a Mac Mini PPC that I run Mac 10.4.11 and 9.2 on.
Also you can try clamXav, which is a graphical interface for clamav.
http://www.clamxav.com/

I hope this helps.
Frank

Re: [Clamav-users] ClamXav will not open

2008-09-29 Thread fchan
Please this support forum for ClamXav:
http://www.markallan.co.uk/BB/

I use clamXav for awhile now and I never saw this error before. My 
guess you no Developer tools on your system which can give you this 
type error since clamXav needs this to compile clamav.  Developer 
Tools with Xcode which comes with every installation CD/DVD or Mac OS 
X CD/DVD.
If you have other question about clamXav post your question to the 
support forum at clamXav.

Re: [Clamav-users] Virus not detected on Linux/MacOSX

2008-09-26 Thread fchan

These are great suggestions for clamscan.
I think mine message was geared towards clamdscan 
which I use to scan mail messages. I worry about 
people sending large files and clamdscan doesn't 
scan them so I scan them manually and adjust 
clamscan accordingly. Also I need to know what 
max-filesize to set to for my mail server.

 Suggestion:

 Change "file.exe: OK" to "file.exe: not scanned - exceeds

max-filesize"


 Change "Scanned files: 1" to "Scanned files: 0" and

add a new count to the summary "Not scanned: 1".

I'd like to support that suggestion.

Re: [Clamav-users] Virus not detected on Linux/MacOSX

2008-09-25 Thread fchan
The sytanx should be:

clamscan --max-filesiz=#n

Below is the exerpt from the man file:
   --max-filesize=#n
  Extract and scan at most #n kilobytes from each archive. You may 
pass the value in megabyte in  format  xM or xm, where x is a number. 
This option protects your system against DoS attacks (default: 25 MB)

Again on either side, clamscan or clamdscan, it should say something 
that a file was not scanned for any reason.  Here is a sample message 
if the file was too large:
The file "the file name" is too large to be scanned. Please consider 
increasing max-filesize setting. Please read 
http://lurker.clamav.net/message/20080313.165458.ac80f65a.en.html (or 
some other warning about DoS and other information about increasing 
max-filesize).
I get these messages from spamassassin running out of child processes 
and I used that as my sample for this type of message.

Remember not everyone that uses clamav is not an expert so for 
someone that is new to clamav thinks that every file that went 
through clamav would be scanned for malware would be incorrect and 
they have a possibility of opening an infected file. I think a 
message or warning that a file that was too large passed through 
clamav without being scanned would be nice so one can take 
appropriate action. That is my opinion.

I read your links and I understand possible DoS and other issues but 
to repeat Alexandre's idea, why is there no error message for file 
that are too large to notify the admin so they can adjust clamd.conf 
or other action. Right now this infected file passes through like if 
it was not infected which would be dangerous under certain conditions.
IMHO this file shouldn't pass through clamav without any error message.

Re: [Clamav-users] bzip2 1.0.5 and clamav 0.94

2008-09-19 Thread fchan
I have RedHat ES 5.1 and I have support with 
RedHat so I have logged a trouble ticket for this 
issue and this is their latest reply:


16-SEP-2008 02:03:47Shailendra Suhas Bandodkar
Greetings,

Thanks for the update.

I consulted the security response team. They say 
that they have reviewed this issue and work on 
fixing this issue is

already in progress.


Updates are expected to be released soon, probably during the next
week.

I would request you to wait for a while until the fix is released.

Thanks for your patience

Best regards
Shailendra

Remember that CentOS is related to RedHat ES 
minus the support so if they fix this on the 
RedHat ES side they will fix it on the CentOS 
side. However since you have CentOS you can get 
bzip2 from http://www.bzip.org/ and install it 
manually if your wish.


Regards,
Frank


ldconfig: yes I remembered that afterwards.
;-)
clamav 0.94 plus patch is running on SuSE 10.3 ok now for the last 14 days.

Which announcement do you mean?
I do not read this mailing list regularly...
I did not find anything on the website.

For the future one suggestion:
can you please put things like patches or needed upgrades of packages like
bzip2  (see below) onto the website also?
So that is easier to find such things.
E.g. the section with "Production quality releases" at
http://www.clamav.net/download/sources
is missing any hint about a patch or upgrade of bzip2.

Probably it is not good to release clamav, if 
the release needs patching afterwards...


Best regards
Markus

Can you show us the output of these commands:

Hello,
Thank you for the suggestion and I just sent myself clam.zip test 
file and clamav detected this correctly.
I could be the systems that have been sending virus infected email 
messages to my mail server have been evacuated because of Tropical 
Storm Gustav;) Or it could calm before the storm.

Again thank you for the suggestion,
Frank

[Clamav-users] No viruses detected since 1711GMT August 29,2008?

2008-08-29 Thread fchan
Hello,
Maybe it is just my mail server, but I noticed that I haven't 
detected any virus infected email message since 1711 GMT August 29, 
2008 so I'm checking if any seen this also. Before this time I got at 
least 10 virus infected messages per hour so this sudden "quiet" 
period is a little strange.
I see nothing wrong or unusual in clamd.log, freshclam.log and mail logs.
I'm running RedHat ES 5 with clamav 0.93.3 with daily.cld is up to 
date (version: 8118).

[Clamav-users] Large increase in mail viruses?

2008-07-31 Thread fchan
Hi,
I don't know if your seeing this also but since Monday July 28, 2008 
I seen double and more in viruses caught by clamav in my mail server. 
My daily average has been about 100 viruses for our mail server for 
the last 8 months but since Monday July 28, 2008 my daily average has 
increased  from 200 to 300 and still increasing.  The two "popular" 
viruses on my mail server are Email.Phishing.Bank-42 and   
Email.PornTeaser-1.
I'm checking if anyone else seen this increase or they are just have 
"fun" with my mail server.

Re: [Clamav-users] -bash: ./configure: No such file or directory

2008-07-03 Thread fchan
Hi Don,
The configure command is for building & compiling from source (raw 
code) so that's why you didn't see the configure command when you 
installed from RPM. RPM's are pre-compiled binary packages that will 
install or update from the rpm file to your system without configure.
To verify your installation of clamav is correct you can do a search 
either freshclam or clamscan. If you do find these two, then you can 
run this according to the location of these executables freshclam 
--version (ie /usr/bin/freshclam --version) to tell what version of 
freshclam you are running.  If you don't find these executables then 
rpm installation is incorrect and you need to re-install from RPM 
again.  Here are some link to rpm command:
http://www.linux.org/docs/ldp/howto/RPM-HOWTO/index.html
http://www.cyberciti.biz/howto/question/linux/linux-rpm-cheat-sheet.php
http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl8_rpm.htm

I hope this helps,
Frank

Re: [Clamav-users] Frequency of virus attacks

2008-06-13 Thread fchan
Well, it appears that your lucky that you haven't  been "discovered" 
by spammers and botnets so they don't spam you with viruses and spam. 
How about how many plain spam messages you get? The more "popular" 
you are the more spam and viruses you will get.
  I get an average of 150 messages with an viruses a day on my mail 
server. The most I got was 432 viruses just few days ago but once in 
a while I get none per day and I do wonder if clamav works at all.
Just sit tight and  you may become popular and the viruses will come.

Re: [Clamav-users] successfull upgrade from 0.92 to 0.93

2008-04-22 Thread fchan

Hi,
I updated from clamav-0.92.1 to 0.93 on RedHat 
Linux ES 5, Linux 2.4 and Macintosh OS 10.4.11. I 
had need to tweak the clamd.conf file because of 
obsolete ArchiveFileSize, ArchiveMaxFiles, etc. 
and for the Macintosh 10.4.11 I need to remove 
the old clamav/lib file before it will compile 
correctly (thank you Tšršk Edwin for your help 
with this). Otherwise I had no issues with 
clamav-0.93.

Maybe it is just me but I noticed that clamav-0.93 scans faster than 0.92.1.

Regards,
Frank


 Hello.

I see stream of problems that people have with upgrading clamav to 0.93.
Just FYI i successfully upgraded from 0.92 to 0.93 on FreeBSD 6.x.
Running in production environment from previous Friday (18 april) with
no problems.

Re: [Clamav-users] US-CERT alert regarding ClamAV

2008-04-15 Thread fchan
If you have problems compiling clamav-0.92 and 
newer is because of gcc bug PR28045 and below is 
the line from my previous configure error:


checking for gcc bug PR28045... configure: error: 
your compiler has gcc PR28045 bug, use a 
different compiler, see 
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28045


This part of clamav-0.92 and new fix of a bug. 
https://wwws.clamav.net/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=613


And in short we need to get gcc4.1.1 or newer to 
get this work on Macintosh 10.4.11 and xcode 2.5 
which only has an gcc 4.0.1. However Apple hasn't 
released gcc 4.1.1 or newer for the Mac 10.4.11 
so we are left to use this an workaround for this 
an Japanese clamav user found this and here is 
the workaround:

export CFLAGS='-g'
"-g" means debug mode building. Then configure 
and make as you have done before.


When you are compiling clamav-0.93 you may run into this error during make:

ld: warning can't open dynamic library: 
/usr/local/clamXav/lib/libclamunrar.4.dylib

And Tšršk Edwin said to move or delete the old 
clamav/lib directory and after that it the 
compile worked for me.


I hope this helps.

Re: [Clamav-users] clamav gcc dependendencies ...

2007-12-18 Thread fchan

Hi,
I just configure with CFLAGS="-O0" and did make 
and make install and it worked on my Mac running 
10.4.11!
However we in the Apple user community are at the 
mercy of Apple as to when Apple will update gcc 
to 4.1.1 or later. I had pre-release version of 
gcc-4.2.1 from Apple which didn't work on 
compiling clamav on my Mac running 10.4.11. This 
pre-release version of gcc-4.2.1 was for a 
different project so I didn't think it would work 
since it was partial release.


Frank


hey all,

just to chime in with GCC 4.0.1 compiler problems on Mac OS X 10.4.10Ê
Server.
it breaks with the same errors mentioned:

checking for a supported version of gcc... ok (4.0.1)
checking for gcc bug PR27603... ok, bug not present
checking for gcc bug PR28045... configure: error: your compiler hasÊ
gcc PR28045 bug, use a different compiler, see http://gcc.gnu.org/
bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28045

but with Edwins mentioned parameter:
CFLAGS="-O0" it works
CFLAGS="-O1" or CFLAGS="-O2" it fails again.

is it safe to build it with CFLAGS="-O0" and to let it run onÊ
production servers?
i have to mention, that i'm no expert in using compiler options.

thx.
oliver

 Any compiler that passes the test in ./configure is ok (just to beÊ

 you can use any compiler, not just gcc).
 For gcc versions > 4.1.1, and  < 4.0 are known to work.
 So 3.2 is ok.

Hello,
I'm on a MacBookPro running 10.4.11 with xcode

Here is what saw in config.log:

You don't need to upgrade to 4.1.2/4.2.x.
gcc-3.4 can be nicely installed side-by-side with a 4.0.x/4.1.0 series
gcc, all you need to do is:

# apt-get install gcc-3.4
$ export CC=gcc-3.4
$ ./configure


 Was/is there absolutely no way of fixing this gcc problem in the clamav
 source?

There are bounds checks in the code, that the compiler removes, thus
leaving clamav vulnerable and crashing.
Sorry, but that is a broken compiler version.

Re: [Clamav-users] Slow scanning of large Power Point Presentations

2005-09-26 Thread fchan

Hi Chris,
That should be understandable for what it is scanning. This is also 
affected by if there are large images in the file.  My boss creates 
40MB PowerPoints which takes 162 second (2.7 minutes) to scan. But 
remember the system is doing other things at the same time when it is 
scanning the document so this will vary.  I have an 2GHz single 
processor 2GB RAM with ClamAV 0.87 using reformime but only have 30 
users (excluding aliases) and have spamassassin scanning spam also.


I hope this helps.

Regards,
Frank

Hi,
I`m running Clam AV 0.87 and have noticed some poor performance when
scanning large (20Mb+) Power Point presentations. These scans can take
upwards of 3 minutes. I had similar issues with 0.86.1 but upgrading
has not resolved the problem.

I'm running Clamd with Mimedefang on a 2.4Ghz Xeon 4 processor machine
with 3Gb of RAM, running Red Hat 8.

Has anyone else experienced issues with .ppt files taking large
