Hi David,
The short answer:
man freshclam
The long answer:
1. You need to update your virus database. It's recommended 2 times a day.
2. You can tell freshclam to log it's activities to a file (see the -l
option)
3. Your cron writes some output, yes? Have you verified that freshclam
actually runs as expected?
4. You need to give information on the version of ClamAv that you run ;)
cheers
