When I set up Clam earlier today, I was able to run it from the command line and test it against an EICAR file, get a response, etc. I saw it fail against the bad database and succeed when properly configured. I imagine that I could easily schedule that, pipe the results to a text file and schedule a bot to read it regularly and e-mail me if the test fails. That would let me know if FreshClam ever mangled the database.
Is there a way we could do the same with Declude and the Internal AVG scanner / database? Is there some way to execute it from a command line, point it at EICAR and get a parse-able result? That could be awfully handy. -- Michael Cummins From: supp...@declude.com [mailto:supp...@declude.com] On Behalf Of Andy Schmidt Sent: Thursday, April 29, 2010 11:13 PM To: declude.virus@declude.com Subject: RE: [Declude.Virus] New Release Declude 4.10.48 -- MUST Install to Reenable Virus Protection! Declude Users - take note! CommTouch/Zerohous does a good job, but does not catch all known viruses (some days I have 5 or 6 DIFFERENT viruses/trojans sneaking by, some to multiple users each!), it's absolutely imperative that AVG works if you don't have additional scanners set up. Unfortunately, AVG had stopped working (no one has said for how many weeks or possible months it has not worked). I have confirmed that AVG is now working again after I upgraded from 4.10.42-A to 4.10.48. So - I recommend all Declude users get on top of this quickly! (PS: This is the second time AVG has gone AWOL inside of Declude for extended periods of times - and it's never discovered until I finally insist. Naturally, I have zero confidence in the built-in scanner. It's unreliable and there is no notification whenever it stops working.)
