I run freshclam from CFEngine, which means the updates will
automatically be spread out by the cfengine SplayTime, and wander over
time due to the 11h 59m update period. CFEngine does have a bit of a
learning curve, though.
control:
darwin|openbsd::
freshclam = ( /usr/local/bin/freshclam )
linux::
freshclam = ( /usr/bin/freshclam )
shellcommands:
any::
"${freshclam} --quiet" ifelapsed=719
As a side benefit, supporting new Operating Systems is easy: just set
the path to freshclam in the control section. No fiddling with crontab
entries or cron scripts.
