/etc/smrsh/clamupdate.cmd is one line: cp /root/stuff/freshclam.scr /etc/cron.hourly/ the file /root/stuff/freshclam.scr contains: freshclam \rm /etc/cron.hourly/freshclam.scr /usr/batch/clmilter_watch.pl I put in the hourly cron so that it gets kicked off within the next hour but not right away when lots of people are probably banging away at the server. _______________________________________________ http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
