Bill Landry's unofficial sigs script does it right by using a random
function as an offset from cron time to actually initial a sig download.

I am using freshclam but NOT running it as a daemon. Here is my cron
task:

this will be hardcoded time checks, not a fail if one can live with

Thanks Al,
This is actually for a farm of servers (right now it is a farm of 1)
running Ubuntu on EC2. I was kinda surprised that there wasn't already a
mirror in AWS since they actually included ClamAV in their extended package
but such is life. My latest thoughts have been around having a sing
