This has been covered before but I'll check the FAQ and add it if it's missing.<BR>
<BR>
Julian has well scripted the Sophos installation and you need to use his scripts:<BR>
<BR>
cd to wherever you un-tarred the Sophos files:<BR>
<BR>
cd <somewhere>/sav-install tehn run
<BLOCKQUOTE>
/usr/sbin/Sophos.install
</BLOCKQUOTE>
This script does it all!<BR>
<BR>
Then make sure that the SAVI-Perl module is correctly installed:

</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BR>
Then change your MailScanner.conf file:
<BLOCKQUOTE>
Virus Scanners = sophossavi
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BR>
The update_virus scanners script will also be installed by the new MailScanner<BR>
<BR>
Note there is no need to run spamd with this setup.<BR>

<PRE><FONT COLOR="#737373"><I>I am in the process of trying to upgrade from mailscanner 2.6 to the latest
4.x version. I am a bit confused in the virus configuration section. We
use Sophos. I believe its simply the Sophossavi license since we only use
it for email purposes. I have sophos installed in /usr/local/sav with the
sweep binary in /usr/local/bin and the libraries in /usr/local/lib. I
noticed there is a install.sophos script in mailscanner/bin. I presume
that is for the full sophos package and not sophos savi, correct? The old
configuration used to have a direct path for the sweep binary. How do I
make sure that it can find the sweep binary now?
Note:
If I use sophossavi, it doesn't process the messages. I get the following
errors in syslog:
Jul 16 15:07:37 backt MailScanner[27962]: MailScanner E-Mail Virus Scanner
version 4.22-5 starting...
Jul 16 15:07:46 backt root: Process did not exit cleanly, returned 2 with
signal 0
Somehow, I don't think its finding the sophos binary, "sweep".
Note: the spam side with spamassassin seems to be working fine.
