Subject: RE: [Declude.Virus] ClamAV



In case this is helpful for someone else that isn't so great
at rolling their own Clams from the source code:
 
First, I installed ClamAID using the default options.  (SmarterMail
/ Declude install for me)
 
http://www.armresearch.com/tools/arm/clamAID.jsp
 
This installs Clam 0.92, wraps it up as a service, wraps up
FreshClam as a service and gets everything pointed and configured for Declude
to use.  It includes pthreadVC2.dll , but I don't know if it uses it once we
replace the files here in a bit, because.
 
.when FreshClam goes to update the DB, it mangles the DB dies,
because version 0.92 isn't supported anymore.  
 
Immediately after installing ClamAID I stopped the ClamAVSvc
and FreshClam services and I commented out the lines it added in virus.cfg so I
could get it all running properly again.
 
I downloaded the clamav-win32-0.96.7z from http://oss.netfarm.it/clamav/ and
extracted the files to a folder.  I grabbed all the .exe and .dll files and
replaced the old ones in \Program Files\Clam AV.  I edited \conf\clamd.conf and
commented out the deprecated MailFollowURLs on line 226.  I deleted the files
in \data\ and crated a \db\.  I set the log levels in clamd.conf and
freshclam.conf to high so I could see things chugging along until I was
comfortable.  I hard set the database to \db\ in the conf files, and set
verbose logging.
 
I cranked up the services, and watched FreshClam download
new profiles to \db\.
 
Once the db was downloaded, I tested Clam from the command
prompt as described on the armresearch page, and everything looked like it was
working fine.
 
I uncommented the lines in Declude, restarted Declude, and
watched it all start humming.
 
Now I am just keeping an eye on things, and waiting for Clam
to catch a virus.
