It looks like you have a DNS issue when this is trying to run. You should look to see how/that dns is working on this machine. The cronjobs run after the system startup so, in general, it shouldn't be a timing issue but could be depending on how you have things set up. The response that you get from a: host -t txt current.cvd.clamav.net command should look something like: current.cvd.clamav.net descriptive text "0.103.7:62:26762:1672074000:1:90:49192:333" The *.clamav.net services run off a CDN so the IPnumbers can change at will, so don't try to overcome your dns issue by putting something in our resolve.conf. _______________________________________________ Manage your clamav-users mailing list subscription / unsubscribe: https://lists.clamav.net/mailman/listinfo/clamav-users Help us build a comprehensive ClamAV guide: https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav-documentation https://docs.clamav.net/#mailing-lists-and-chat
