[Declude.Virus] f-prot update script
Does anyone have an f-prot update script that they wouldn't mind sharing? I have tried one that I found, but never could get it to work. Any help is appreciated.

Re: [Declude.Virus] f-prot update script
You could just go the simplistic route too and just put "C:\Program Files\FSI\F-Prot\FP-Updater\Updater.exe" /internet /hidden in your task scheduler, it is not quite as robust or foolproof as some of the other scripts, but I have yet to have an issue with it and it is way simple to setup and manage.

RE: [Declude.Virus] f-prot update script
Well, you've got two problems here, Daniel. The first is that the script depends on an external program called wget that you probably don't have installed. The second is that this script should be deprecated, because the FTP method is no longer provided by F-Prot! As Jim and Keith pointed out, following the F-Prot article is the way to go. I just implemented this last week; here's my comment: http://www.mail-archive.com/declude.virus@declude.com/msg11870.html Andrew 8) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daniel Ivey Sent: Monday, May 02, 2005 8:06 AM To: 'Declude.Virus@declude.com' Subject: RE: [Declude.Virus] f-prot update script I have tried using this script.

RE: [Declude.Virus] f-prot update script
This update is the worst method IMO (The one referenced in the link here). I used to update every hour and using this I would find the machine with the updater hung on the screen timed out at least once a week. W2K Server SP4. What OS are you using it on where it does NOT create issues? I started writing a simple updater using 4NT copy /u which copies across anonymous ftp and http links and only copies new files. Perfect but then I read somewhere that fprot has no FTP updates available anymore so I rewrote the one for Mcafee command line instead since I do not have the full version installed on this machine and do not want to install the full version. The script pulls the superdat expands it and then the daily dat. I could not get the wget Mcafee script from the Declude links to work for long either. Wget got corrupted after 2 days saying it was not a valid win32 application. Those links on the Declude site should be removed as that stuff does not work anymore. 4NT from Jpsoft is simply the best tool for the job anyway. That and unzip from infozip and it is done.

RE: [Declude.Virus] f-prot update script
Hmmm. Well, I went to the F-Prot website and picked out their link to download the latest signatures. They do not support the FTP method anymore, but: wget -N http://updates.f-prot.com/cgi-bin/get_randomly?fp-def and wget -N http://updates.f-prot.com/cgi-bin/get_randomly?macrdef2 do work very well. Thanks for pointing that out, Bill. It may be worth mentioning that when the GUI scheduler had problems, it would tell me instead of quietly erroring out or retrying, which was why I switched to the method discussed, which was to invoke: http://www.f-prot.com/support/windows/fpwin_faq/88.html from Task Scheduler or AT commands. Since I switched to this method, my downloads have been flawless. I won't be switching to wget with http unless this turns out to be bad. For what it's worth, I've been using 3.16a and now 3.16b ...

Hi Andrew, We have monitoring in place to know if any management process fails, so we'll know if this no longer works and we need to change.

Re: [Declude.Virus] f-prot update script
FYI, my experience with the command line updater in F-Prot has been perfect so far as I can tell. I think the issue that you are referring to is the program updates that only the GUI handles through the F-Prot Updater which has been known to hang in the past when bandwidth isn't good. The command line tool can be set up in Windows Scheduler with a reasonable time out which should kill the command if it goes on too long, and it only handles the definitions. I can see from F-Prot's perspective that supporting scheduled FTP downloads is not good for their bandwidth since most probably don't bother to check to see if there is a newer file before downloading (not necessarily the case here). I schedule my command line to run at an odd minute, every 60 minutes in order to avoid any common download times and the slowdowns that might accompany them. I have McAfee update every 60 minutes offset 30 minutes from F-Prot.

[Declude.Virus] F-PROT update script for NT
Someone posted a script to update F-PROT automatically earlier (don't remember who). I modified that script so that it mails info+a transcript of the ftp session in a txt file to me using imail1.exe. It's attached. Pretty easy it figure out how it works, I used pkunzip from pkware. -- Regards, Terrence Koeman Technical Director/Administrator MediaMonks B.V.

Sending this again because probably all have received the previous with an invalid digital signature. I think it's because the extention of my attachment was changed from 'cmd' to 'zl5', probably because 'cmd' is executable... I have attached it now with the extention 'xxx'.
