Trying this right now, but i noticed the update_virus_scanners didnt see i
have it installed. Its in the regular place (/opt/bdc) and when i run
manually /usr/lib/MailScanner/bitdefender_autoupdate is updated the sig
files.

Any idea Julian ?

Trying the RPM version from their website:
BitDefender-Console-Antivirus-7.0.1-3.linux-gcc3x.i586.rpm

So its using the suggested paths as packed by bitdefender theirselves

I also noticed in the /etc/MailScanner/virus.scanners.conf

bitdefender    /usr/lib/MailScanner/bitdefender-wrapper /usr/local/bd7

After changing that to /opt/bdc it seems to pick it up ok:

bitdefender     /usr/lib/MailScanner/bitdefender-wrapper /opt/bdc/

May  2 13:25:41 vmx01 update.virus.scanners: Found bitdefender installed
May  2 13:25:41 vmx01 update.virus.scanners: Running autoupdate for bitdefender

There is some stuff in the wrapper i noticed, but thats not picking things
up, right now it is, but only with the changed paths in the
virus.scanners.conf

Bye,
Raymond.
