I've been puzzling over a ClamAV installation I was handed.


?

Is there an easy way to verify which signatures are being 
loaded/used?


?

if it exists in databasedir then its used, unless its disabled in 
clamd.conf


when clamd starts see its logs


It's not clear to me, where you go to enable/disable signatures.


disable signatures is possible with ignore file defination, see and 
example in sigtool --unpack-current=daily in the ign2 extenion 
filename



I see quite a lot of signatures being downloaded by freshclam and/or
the unofficial-sigs.sh jobs.


+1 :)

i hope you disable some in there setups if only 6 hits ?


However I don't see evidence in my maillogs
of hits on more than 6 of them.  We have fairly busy mail routers so
I'd expect to hit on some of the others at least once a day.


what are your problem really ?, out of mem ?

so far i have not seen virus from main.cvd yet :(

clamav team can begin make databases so its possible to drop very old 
signatures that does not hit anywhere, but still create a new 
store-yaer.cvd with all the old signature just in case anyone like to 
use it where mem is not a concern, where year is here 2013 or 2012 so 
freshclam dont waste trafic on sync again



I hunted around on Wiki/FAQ and web searches couldn't find an
answer to this.


you are the first that asked imho, i think freshclam should have git 
update sync aswell, more or less i see safebrowsing now dont work with 
scripted updates, i dont know what the heck google does there, not even 
mirror there own database files, hmp !

Found the answer to part of my question with:

clamconf -n

I still have a problem that previous admin was downloading
lots of unofficial signatures, to a place that clamd isn't paying
any attention to.  Working on that part.
