In my maillog I see:

Jun  9 17:07:16 tesla update.virus.scanners: Found sophos installed
Jun  9 17:07:16 tesla update.virus.scanners: Running autoupdate for sophos
Jun  9 17:07:17 tesla Sophos-autoupdate[1501]: Sophos V5 updated


But if I try to manually update I get:

[root at tesla ~]# /opt/sophos-av/bin/savupdate -v 5

And if I manually run "/usr/lib/MailScanner/sophos-autoupdate"  or
"/usr/lib/MailScanner/sophos-autoupdate /opt/sophos-av" the maillog shows:

Jun  9 18:39:02 tesla Sophos-autoupdate[2106]: Sophos V5 updater failed


So is Sophos 5 really being updated?

Thanks,
Mark Nienberg
