I configured a new system yesterday. I used an old tar from f-prot with
old DEF-files. The whole night the logging keeps saying:
|Oct 21 10:00:00 netlx010-new update.virus.scanners: Found f-prot installed
|Oct 21 10:00:00 netlx010-new update.virus.scanners: Running autoupdate for f-prot
(Ofcourse the timestampo changes)

But when I look in the f-prot directory I have:
|-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       480880 Oct 20 18:00 MACRO.DEF
|-rw-r--r--    1 root     root      1091360 Oct 21 01:00 SIGN.DEF
|-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       950625 Oct 21 01:00 SIGN2.DEF

So somehow the f-prot autoupdate doesn't seem to log anymore.
