Julian,
I'm trying to get the sanesecurity.co.uk unofficial clam sigs rolled
into my MailScanner/clamd setup. I downloaded script 2 from sanesecurity,
and went to work. The conf file for it wants to know this setting:
# Set path to ClamAV database files location. If unsure, check
# your clamd.conf file for the "DatabaseDirectory" path setting.
clam_dbs="/opt/clamav/share/clamav"
Being unsure, I looked at my clamd.conf file and found the
DatabaseDirectory entry commented out:
# Path to the database directory.
# Default: hardcoded (depends on installation options)
#DatabaseDirectory /var/lib/clamav
So I guessed that this setting might be buried in MailScanner someplace,
but I can't find it. Any idea what MailScanner thinks it is?
My MailScanner.conf settings are:
Virus Scanners = clamd sophos
Monitors for ClamAV Updates = /opt/clamav/share/clamav/*.cld /opt/clamav/share/clamav/*.cvd
ClamAVmodule Maximum Recursion Level = 8
ClamAVmodule Maximum Files = 1000
ClamAVmodule Maximum File Size = 20971520 # (20 Mbytes)
ClamAVmodule Maximum Compression Ratio = 250
Clamd Port = 3310
Clamd Socket = /tmp/clamd.socket
Clamd Lock File = # /var/lock/subsys/clamd
Clamd Use Threads = no
ClamAV Full Message Scan = yes
My clam database files are in /opt/clamav/share/clamav. Should the
mbl-dbs, msrbl-dbs, si-dbs, and similiar directories end up in the
same spot, or can they be elsewhere?
The three email tests provided by sanesecurity all fail, ie the emails
get through.
My setup: Solaris 10, MS 4.74.13-2, clamd version 0.94.2.
Any hints on how to get sanesecurity to join in with MailScanner?
