I upgraded to the new stable version and tried running MailScanner
--lint. It complains that there's an invalid argument -old being passed???
I don't have f-prot-6 installed. Also, I manually ran
update_virus_scanners and it successfully checked/updated all scanners
including f-prot. f-prot runs correctly using the information from
virus.scanners.conf.
MailScanner --lint
Trying to setlogsock(unix)
Checking version numbers...
Version number in MailScanner.conf (4.68.2) is correct.
Your envelope_sender_header in spam.assassin.prefs.conf is correct.
Checking for SpamAssassin errors (if you use it)...
SpamAssassin temp dir = /var/spool/MailScanner/incoming/SpamAssassin-Temp
SpamAssassin reported no errors.
MailScanner.conf says "Virus Scanners = clamd f-prot bitdefender"
ERROR:: COULD NOT CONNECT TO FPSCAND, RECOMMEND RESTARTING DAEMON ::
ISITINSTALLED
Found these virus scanners installed: bitdefender, clamavmodule, f-prot,
clamd
===========================================================================
Invalid argument '-old'
===========================================================================
Virus Scanner test reports:
Clamd said "eicar.com was infected: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND"
Bitdefender said "Found virus EICAR-Test-File (not a virus) in file
eicar.com"
If any of your virus scanners (bitdefender,clamavmodule,f-prot,clamd)
are not listed there, you should check that they are installed correctly
and that MailScanner is finding them correctly via its virus.scanners.conf.
