clamAV in fc5 - no clamd.conf !

[gasman]

hi

i want to use clamav to periodically (cron) scan files on my fc5 samba fileserver which serves a winxp LAN

64 bit fc5 and clamAV 88.7-1.fc5

i've installed clam from yumex: clamav, -lib, -data, -update, -server (probably don't need that last one)

i've edited freshclam.conf so # freshclam command updates the signature database OK

but, for whatever reason there is no clamd.conf anywhere i can find on the system - not in /etc or anywhere under /usr

:confused:

where do i go from here ?

thanks

neill

Should be in /etc/clamd.conf

If not here is the text that you can edit to meet your specifications

##
## Example config file for the Clam AV daemon
## Please read the clamd.conf(5) manual before editing this file.

# Comment or remove the line below.
#Example

# Uncomment this option to enable logging.
# LogFile must be writable for the user running daemon.
# A full path is required.
# Default: disabled
#LogFile /tmp/clamd.log

# By default the log file is locked for writing - the lock protects against
# running clamd multiple times (if you want to run another clamd instance,
# please # copy the configuration file, change the LogFile variable, and run
# the daemon with the --config-file option).
# This option disables log file locking.
# Default: disabled
#LogFileUnlock

# Maximal size of the log file.
# Value of 0 disables the limit.
# You may use 'M' or 'm' for megabytes (1M = 1m = 1048576 bytes)
# and 'K' or 'k' for kilobytes (1K = 1k = 1024 bytes). To specify the size
# in bytes just don't use modifiers.
# Default: 1M
#LogFileMaxSize 2M

# Log time with each message.
# Default: disabled
#LogTime

# Also log clean files. Useful in debugging but drastically increases the
# log size.

#DatabaseDirectory /var/lib/clamav

# The daemon works in a local OR a network mode. Due to security reasons we
# recommend the local mode.

# Path to a local socket file the daemon will listen on.
# Default: disabled
LocalSocket /tmp/clamd

# Remove stale socket after unclean shutdown.
# Default: disabled
FixStaleSocket

# TCP port address.

# Maximum length the queue of pending connections may grow to.
# Default: 15

# Clamd uses FTP-like protocol to receive data from remote clients.
# If you are using clamav-milter to balance load between remote clamd daemons
# on firewall servers you may need to tune the options below.

##
## Executable files
##

# PE stands for Portable Executable - it's an executable file format used
# in all 32-bit versions of Windows operating systems. This option allows
# ClamAV to perform a deeper analysis of executable files and it's also
# required for decompression of popular executable packers such as UPX, FSG,
# and Petite.
# Default: enabled
#ScanPE

# With this option clamav will try to detect broken executables and mark
# them as Broken.Executable
# Default: disabled
#DetectBrokenExecutables


##
## Documents
##

# This option enables scanning of Microsoft Office document macros.
# Default: enabled
#ScanOLE2

##
## Mail files
##

# Enable internal e-mail scanner.
# Default: enabled
#ScanMail

# If an email contains URLs ClamAV can download and scan them.
# WARNING: This option may open your system to a DoS attack.
# Never use it on loaded servers.
# Default: disabled
#MailFollowURLs

# Recursion level limit for the mail scanner.
# Default: 64
#MailMaxRecursion 128


##
## HTML
##

# Perform HTML normalisation and decryption of MS Script Encoder code.
# Default: enabled
#ScanHTML


##
## Archives
##

# ClamAV can scan within archives and compressed files.
# Default: enabled
#ScanArchive

# Due to license issues libclamav does not support RAR 3.0 archives (only the
# old 2.0 format is supported). Because some users report stability problems
# with unrarlib it's disabled by default and you must uncomment the directive
# below to enable RAR 2.0 support.
# Default: disabled
#ScanRAR

# The options below protect your system against Denial of Service attacks
# using archive bombs.

# Files in archives larger than this limit won't be scanned.
# Value of 0 disables the limit.
# Default: 10M
#ArchiveMaxFileSize 15M

# Nested archives are scanned recursively, e.g. if a Zip archive contains a RAR
# file, all files within it will also be scanned. This options specifies how
# deep the process should be continued.
# Value of 0 disables the limit.
# Default: 8
#ArchiveMaxRecursion 9

# Number of files to be scanned within an archive.
# Value of 0 disables the limit.
# Default: 1000
#ArchiveMaxFiles 1500

# If a file in an archive is compressed more than ArchiveMaxCompressionRatio
# times it will be marked as a virus (Oversized.ArchiveType, e.g. Oversized.Zip)
# Value of 0 disables the limit.
# Default: 250
#ArchiveMaxCompressionRatio 300

# Use slower but memory efficient decompression algorithm.
# only affects the bzip2 decompressor.
# Default: disabled
#ArchiveLimitMemoryUsage

# Mark encrypted archives as viruses (Encrypted.Zip, Encrypted.RAR).
# Default: disabled
#ArchiveBlockEncrypted

# Mark archives as viruses (e.g. RAR.ExceededFileSize, Zip.ExceededFilesLimit)
# if ArchiveMaxFiles, ArchiveMaxFileSize, or ArchiveMaxRecursion limit is
# reached.
# Default: disabled
#ArchiveBlockMax

## Clamuko settings
## WARNING: This is experimental software. It is very likely it will hang

# Default: disabled
#ClamukoScanOnAccess

# Set access mask for Clamuko.
# Default: disabled
#ClamukoScanOnOpen

# Set the include paths (all files in them will be scanned). You can have
# multiple ClamukoIncludePath directives but each directory must be added
# in a seperate line.
# Default: disabled
#ClamukoIncludePath /home
#ClamukoIncludePath /students

# Set the exclude paths. All subdirectories are also excluded.
# Default: disabled

thanks - i'll try that :)

Hello, I've a FC6 with 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6 SMP kernel and I want to run AVG realtime protection which depends on dazuko.
But when I execute
./configure --enable-syscalls --mapfile=/boot/System.map-`uname -r` --sct-readonly
on the latest dazuko source I get:
local __d_path() = yes (WARNING: dangerous for SMP kernels, see README.linux26)

I read about this and it seems I've to make some changes on the kernel and compile it again.
But I've some problems:
1. The kernel patch refers to a file that does not exist in the kernel source 'dcache.c', where is this file?
2. Compiling the kernel is never a solution for me. I can compile lots of modules which I dont mind, but the kernel.... naaaaaaaa not on my laptop. Do they also change the engine of their car everytime they install new seat covers? Its already an extra job for me everytime I update the kernel I have to compile some modules again but I would compile the kernel on a server where I would never do updates once I find it stable. It's my policy.

Is there a way or a patch to solve this error? Or a SMP version of dazuko?

Thanks in advance.
