I dont use Sophos at all, but it seems it still parses the config values
for that.
I commented out those one and it was running just fine, i would expect
however it would be ignored... Since thats what the config told me :)
I also noticed when i use the new setting:
Include Scanner Name In Reports = yes
It only reported one virus in the log, but i sended a test zip with 6. :)
Mar 29 20:43:29 master MailScanner[8749]: Virus Scanning: F-Prot found virus W32/Klez.H at mm
Mar 29 20:43:29 master MailScanner[8749]: Virus Scanning: f-prot found 6 infections
Mar 29 20:43:29 master MailScanner[8749]: Virus Scanning: Found 6 viruses
In the report file its okay:
Report:
F-Prot:
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/8749/h2TJhO209027/scanner.zip->MSO-Patch-0071.exe
Infection:W32/Lirva.D at mm
F-Prot:
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/8749/h2TJhO209027/scanner.zip->name.exe
Infection: W32/Klez.H at mm
F-Prot:
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/8749/h2TJhO209027/scanner.zip->setup.exe
Infection: W32/Klez.H at mm
F-Prot:
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/8749/h2TJhO209027/scanner.zip->SQL_4_Free.scr
Infection: W32/Lentin.H at mm
F-Prot:
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/8749/h2TJhO209027/scanner.zip->width.pif
Infection: W32/Klez.H at mm
F-Prot:
/var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/8749/h2TJhO209027/scanner.zip->you.exe
Infection: W32/Klez.H at mm
But i guess the others also should be added in the logfile ? And not only
reporting it found one Klez, in fact it found 4 x Klez, 1 x Lentin and 1 x
Lirva...
Besides that its running ok it seems :)
To keep all the same i would also suggest to convert the one lowercase:
Virus Scanning: f-prot found 6 infections
Into
Virus Scanning: F-prot found 6 infections
=)
Bye,
Raymond.
