I read the instructions regarding how to setup a local web server found here: https://docs.clamav.net/appendix/CvdPrivateMirror.html Thank you for this, very helpful. Can you confirm that commercial use of the database update service is generally allowed with no restrictions beyond what's outlined in ClamAV documentation?
For a definitive answer I guess you'd have to define "commercial use" but you can certainly use the database update service, (and since you seem to be making a distinction, the database(s) and all the software which makes use of same) in a commercial setting, such as for example might be the case if you installed ClamAV on thousands of workstations in a business and provided a local mirror at the business' premises to propagate database updates to the workstations. You might limit the number of updates per day performed by the mirror to some small number but there would effectively then be no limit on the number of updates per day that the workstations could attempt, as the Cloudflare Content Delivery Network would not see them. See the mailing list archives if you need to know about the recently imposed abuse mitigation measures. -- 73, Ged. _______________________________________________ clamav-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/vrtadmin/clamav-faq http://www.clamav.net/contact.html#ml
