Not strange at all - this server already has the current main.cvd, which is updated far less often than daily.cvd. I belive the last update to main.cvd was in April. If the other servers now have a main.inc, it's because they didn't have the current main.cvd and received an update. Next time there's a main.cvd update, this server will create its own main.inc directory and just download the changes, not the whole giant file. Bottom line is don't concern yourself at installation/upgrade time about wether you have a *.cvd or a *.inc as long as freshclam reports you are current. Do be concerned if freshclam is consistently unable to get future scripted updates. -- Noel Jones _______________________________________________ Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: visit http://wiki.clamav.net http://lurker.clamav.net/list/clamav-users.html
