Hi,

I get weird result from autoupdate on one of my servers:

Excerpt from a 'sane' server:

[root at sane root]# grep updated /var/log/maillog
Jun 12 08:03:52 sane ClamAV-autoupdate[9824]: ClamAV updated
Jun 12 09:09:29 sane ClamAV-autoupdate[18865]: ClamAV updated
[root at sane root]# clamscan -V
ClamAV 0.85.1/929/Sun Jun 12 08:11:33 2005
[root at sane root]# date
Sun Jun 12 09:40:48 EDT 2005

Excerpt from problematic server

[root at insanelog]# grep updated /var/log/maillog
Jun 12 05:01:45 instane ClamAV-autoupdate[5501]: ClamAV updated
Jun 12 06:02:10 insane ClamAV-autoupdate[6012]: ClamAV updated
[root at insane log]# clamscan -V
ClamAV 0.85.1/919/Tue Jun  7 08:26:14 2005
[root at insane log]# date
Sun Jun 12 06:39:11 PDT 2005

The logs say it is updating, around the same time as my other server
(differences in time is because of timezone), but the definition # is
not reflecting the update. If I run freshclam manually:

[root at insanelog]# freshclam
ClamAV update process started at Sun Jun 12 06:42:37 2005

[root at insane log]# clamscan -V

Any ideas?

Should I enable the log in freshclam.conf?

Regards,

Ugo
