Unless you're running a huge number of threads, I doubt that's the problem. Memory may be an issue, but again, I doubt it. Simscan uses a program called clamdscan to send the mail to the clamd daemon process. If clamdscan is unable to contact the clamd daemon, it reports back with an Unable to connect() error. The reason your web-based users can send mail is likely because they are allowed specifically in the tcp.smtp file. If you can provide a copy of that, I can confirm... As for how to fix your clam problem, you need to determine why clamdscan is not able to contact clamd. The first step is probably to make sure that clamd is running : ps -ef | grep clamd You should get something like this : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ ps -ef | grep clamd friz 21749 21719 0 21:29 pts/300:00:00 grep clamd clamav 28430 1 0 Apr15 ?00:14:14 /usr/sbin/clamd Next, you can try connecting to the local process yourself : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ telnet localhost 3310 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1). Escape character is '^]'. UNKNOWN COMMAND Connection closed by foreign host. Just hitting enter when you connect will result in the UNKNOWN COMMAND you see above. Next, try sending something manually to clamd via clamdscan.. You'll probably get an lstat() error when you do because you're not running clamdscan as the proper user, and clamd can't access the file, but it will, at least, connect. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ clamdscan wil.txt /home/friz/wil.txt: lstat() failed. ERROR - --- SCAN SUMMARY --- Infected files: 0 Time: 0.002 sec (0 m 0 s) If it doesn't connect, you'll get something like this : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ clamdscan wil.txt connect(): Connection refused WARNING: Can't connect to clamd. - --- SCAN SUMMARY --- Infected files: 0 Time: 0.001 sec (0 m 0 s) If you get the latter, then my guess is that either you have a firewall blocking the process, or clamd is set up to use a non-standard port. If all of the above works, then it may be a permissions problem. Check Shupp's toaster directions to make sure you have the permissions right...

Re: [toaster] Freshclam question
Bill Shupp wrote:
I'll get this added to the toaster.
Not sure if you're following the clamav list at all, but.. 0.85 seems
to have introduced what some people are calling a bug. Prior releases
created the clamd.log and freshclam.log files with owner and group of
root. Even though clam was running with the clamav user (or whatever
you specified) it was still able to write to the files. (I suspect that
was actually the bug, and the current behaviour is more correct,
although not perfect.. the files should be created with the clam user,
not root) .. Now, if the files are owned by root, and permissions are
not world writeable, clam can't write to the logs.
So, the long and short of it is that I would recommend specifiying the
owner and group in the rotate config, as well as the modes for the
files.. I use this here :
/var/log/clamav/clamd.log {
missingok
nocompress
create 644 clamav clamav
postrotate
/sbin/service clamd reload 2 /dev/null 2 /dev/null || true
endscript
}
/var/log/clamav/freshclam.log {
missingok
nocompress
create 644 clamav clamav
postrotate
/sbin/service freshclam reload 2 /dev/null 2 /dev/null || true
endscript
}
Thanks Tom,

Re: [toaster] Software update: request for guidance.
Alex wrote: Hello, I have installed and setup toaster using instructions provided by Bill and it works great! Now is the task of keeping it up-to-date. I'm a Linux user for a while but can't consider myself to be very proficient and asking for some points. I currently have a toaster v.0.7.9 - 3/13/2005 with custom error reject patch installed and would like to update it to current. Before I mainly installed any updates using RPM's and was wondering if simply redoing the install steps for the software that requires updates will update it or do I need to first remove old versions of libraries, etc ? I have found this instructions for ClamAV update. How true they are ?: Firstly, what is your intention here? Are you looking to ensure that the antivirus and spam system is up to date, or are you looking to be up to date with the latest incarnation of the toaster? Keeping up with AV and Spam is definitely a recommended option. Keeping up with the latest incarnation of the toaster isn't something I would recommend, unless you're looking to gain the latest features. Ofcaurse I understand that I have to reuse same options for ./configure that I have used during the build. But should I actually remove the old libraries as recomended or just do an overwrite? It sounds like you're interested in updating ClamAV ... If you installed it initially via source, then I would recommend keeping with that method. Ensure that the configure options are the same (making note of any necessary changes if something has changed in the software). You should be able to safely install overtop of the existing installation and it will overwrite the files. This is one reason I recommend using a packaging system. I use RPM's here. I have rolled and maintain my own ClamAV RPMs and when I need to upgrade, the RPM ensures that the old files are removed, and the new ones are installed. This, of course, is my own personal preference... :) The assistance will greatly appreciated! If you need any more help, don't hesitate to ask!

Re: [toaster] qmail-scanner question
Bill Shupp wrote: First off, qmail-scanner was never included in the toaster instructions. And it's still as supported as it ever was. Just skip the ripmime/simscan installation under the options section, and follow the qmail-scanner install instructions over at http://qmail-scanner.sf.net. That being said, simscan offers 2 major improvements over qmail-scanner. 1. It can reject viruses or even spam at the smtp level, rather than quarantining them. 2. It can work on a per-domain basis, allowing for greater flexibility. And, just to keep it fair. :) Simscan does not have some of the functionality that qmail-scanner does. It does not support a large number of virus scanners, it doesn't block emails based on headers, nor does it do any message formatting checks. However, it is significantly faster with much less overhead. I use simscan myself.. I got tired of the performance hit qmail-scanner has, and the bouncebacks due to poorly formatted mime attachments ...

I don't think simscan supports dspam yet.. It was talked about, but I'm not sure support was added yet.. Before I do I just thought it might be worth asking if there was a disadvantage to doing things this way (having messages stored in sql database instead of on disk)? Messages stored in SQL?? You can have the users and passwords stored there, but there's really no reason at all to store the messages in SQL.. (I'm not even aware of a patch that can provide this functionality) I was interested in an sql backend because I thought that way the number of users would scale better and I was really worried about doing something to the filesystem that would corrupt/lose messages for potentially many users (I use a few CGI scripts to make administration easier). Are there drawbacks to doing things this way, other than the obvious increase in complexity and overhead ? SQL speeds things up a little when dealing with a large number of users. It does cause extra complexity, and adds more failure points. But, it's fairly easy to replicate elsewhere, and re-building the database on a new machine is pretty simple. Plus you have the ability to create an endless number of useless data reports!

Since it checks the Mail From and Source IP, it can drop connections before any data is sent. This saves in network usage.

[toaster] rcpthosts problem - I'm stumped!
Hi all, I'm experiencing a problem with my toaster setup and to tell the truth, I'm stumped... I've looked into everything I can think of, but I can't get this to work... The error message is as follows : -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 2004 3:40 PM To: SNIP Subject: failure notice Hi. This is the qmail-send program at clamspam.emcyber.com. I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses. This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out. [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Sorry. Although I'm listed as a best-preference MX or A for that host, it isn't in my control/locals file, so I don't treat it as local. (#5.4.6) --- This domain isn't in the locals file because it's handled via vpopmail. Now, checking the rcpthosts file, that domain is not in there. It is, however, in the morercpthosts file. Apparently the rcpthosts file can only hold 50 domains? I tried running qmail-newmrh to compile the morercpthosts file, but this didn't fix the problem. I tried adding another host, mail.shoenerenvironmental.com, and this new host works fine.. It's also in the morercpthosts file. Next I checked DNS. Both shoenerenvironmental.com and mail.shoenerenvironmental.com are set up indentically. I'm stumped.. what else can I look at? I've run out of ideas...

Actually, according to Ken Jones, lookups for cdb are a bit faster. But *updates* to cdb for a domain above about 10K users get considerably slower. Also, MySQL offers the advantage of centralizing user authentication, which is beneficial to clustered environments. Not to mention the benefits of being able to query this information for use in other programs... For instance, we want to know when a user is not using their mailbox so it can be tagged for deletion. With the database backend, I can have a program on a completely different machine query the database, determine the last time the user used their mailbox, and tag the mailbox for deletion if needed.

Re: [toaster] cobalt installation error 2
Is the openssl library directory in your /etc/ld.so.conf file? And did you run ldconfig? For my machine (redhat 9), I need to add the /lib directory into that file and run ldconfig ...
