-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Jason... I understand your frustration with the Kaspersky stuff. I really do. :)
I am embarrassed to say that I don't feel that I am 'qualified' to be included in the group of people considered to be "working on the Kaspersky stuff" I give credit to you guys for working on this (qmail-scanner, and the various subs) and for keeping the development of it moving forward. Qmail-scanner is a great solution for many of us. I am more or less in the category of "hacking away at what I have to achieve the results I desire", and only posted my results to the list in the hopes that someone less experienced with qmail-scanner/Kaspersky might benefit from my experience. It was not meant to be considered as an official patch etc, since I am not a perl programmer, but again, offering my experience to either a less experienced user or someone who might incorporate it into an official patch/solution/etc was really my goal. Sorry if my post only added to the static. It was not my intended result. Keep up the great work. I'll go back into lurking for a while now. :) P.S. I think part of the problem with coming up with a definitive solution to a Kasperksy implementation for qmail-scanner is difficult since there are at least 3 ways that I know of to interface to Kaspersky. 1. Use kavscanner (current 'officially supported' method, but does not make use of the client/server ability of kaspersky) 2. Use the sample AvpDaemonClient script that is supplied with the Kaspersky software. (Fast, makes use of the client/server ability, but requires the minor changes to the current avp_scanner sub that I reported to work) 3. Use Ryan's Finnie's method of talking to the kavdaemon process via a named pipe. This is probably the cleanest/fastest solution, but I had a problem that I was unable to debug in my rush for a solution. This is probably going to be what "we" decide on as being the correct method in my humble opinion, and hopefully Ryan will contact me so I can give him some feedback; direct email is OK Ryan :) This would require the current avp_scanner sub to be replaced with what Ryan has recently posted. Keep up the great work everyone, and don't let the static distract you. :) On Wednesday 19 March 2003 08:35 pm, Jason Haar wrote: > Can everyone who is working on the Kaspersky stuff please come up with a > definitive guide to how to use the daemonized version?
