I'm quoting my original post:

"Here's the relevant information from the wiki:
Solution 1: Use an HTTP proxy
This solution is really easy to implement and is bandwidth efficient.
Install a proxy server (i.e. squid) and then tell your freshclam
clients to use it. This can be done by setting the HTTPProxyServer
parameter in freshclam.conf (see man 5 freshclam.conf for the
details).
Solution 2: Serve .cvd files from a local web server
This solution is really simple to implement but it's only effective if
your clients are all on the same local network and bandwidth is not an
issue for you.
Configure a local webserver on one of your machines (say
machine1.mylan) and let freshclam download the *.cvd files from
http://database.clamav.net to the webserver’s DocumentRoot.
Add this line to freshclam.conf on machine1.mylan:
ScriptedUpdates off
First the database will be downloaded to the local webserver and then
the other clients on the network will update their copy of the
database from it. For this to work you have to change freshclam.conf
on your clients so that it reads:
DatabaseMirror machine1.mylan
ScriptedUpdates off"

Subject: update clamav
Hi thank all you team for this antivirus tool/
My question is on debian i have servers that can not update virus database
directly from internet, so they update from local repository on network
So can i make clamav update from my local repository on server that has
internet ?
I use this source list to update from repository on server
deb http://10.0.1.11/localrepository /
Thank in advanse
