MailScanner and Auto Update Virus definitions?
Hej,
I am in the process of installing MailScanner with ClamAV and F-Prot as
antivirus solution on my Sarge installation.
I have seen that MailScanner should deal with the auto update of the
virus definitions, but I can not figure out if it is working or if I
have missed something.
Question
--------
Am I supposed to manually start a cron job running the
/etc/MailScanner/autoupdate/f-prot-autoupdate
/etc/MailScanner/clamav-autoupdate
When I run these scripts manually the log file (/etc/log/mail.log)
indicates that virus definition has been updated.
(Had to change a path in clamav-autoupdate first)
The /etc/cron.d/f-prot-installer script indicates that MailScanner
should be run instead of f-prot-installer cron job.
Question
--------
Will f-prot-autoupdate also update the f-prot engine?
(/usr/sbin/update-f-prot)
Question
--------
Ok, perhaps I should ask a simple and direct question instead.
How do I turn on auto update of virus definitions and f-prot engine on a
Sarge installation (updated from a very very mini Woody)
Thanks in advance
/Bengt
