Visitor:  "Have you lived here your entire life?"
Irishman:  "No, I live down the lane a bit."
Visitor: "Your whole life?"
Irishman: "Well, not yet."

You also may want to install it from the Ubuntu repo.

 Hello,

I downloaded the tar.gz for Clamav, then gunzipped it, then moved it to its
own directory and un tarred it. Now I have a directory full of files and no
idea how to get clamav installed.

New to Linux
using Ubuntu 20.04 in a Virtual box environment.

Thank you,
Mark B.

Re: [clamav-users] Terminate clamscan after specific time

Hi there,

You can easily start another process, which sleeps for your desired
number of seconds and then kills the clamscan process.  You won't get
the exact summary which clamscan gives when it terminates normally, but
you will get the output about what's been found so you can approximate
the report e.g. by piping the output of the clamscan process to a file
(perhaps asking for verbose reporting from libclamav and/or clamscan as
well as reporting clean files) and doing a little bit of scripting.

This does seem to me to be a strange thing to want to do.  If you can
explain exactly what the problem is and why you think this is the
solution we might be able to offer alternatives or other suggestions.

If all else fails you have the source code.  It would be possible to
get clamscan to respond to a signal in the way you describe.

An Englishman asked an Irishman for directions to somewhere.

The Irishman replied, "If I was going there, I wouldn't start from here".

Hi Micah,

Seems that the parameter --max-scantime=#n aborts scan on every file
after #n ms.
But it continues to the next file, instead of clamscan termination +
summary as I need.

Thanks,

 Zvi

Micah,


I did not pay attention to this parameter.


Thank you for discovering it,

Zvi,
 
Yes, clamscan has a --max-scantime=#n
  option, which is measured in milliseconds.  Clamscan will
  check the time limit periodically and abort the scan if the
  time limit has been exceeded.  There is a similar config
  option for clamd in clamd.conf.
 
Disclaimer: the limit is not precise as
  clamscan may be busy decompressing or parsing a file in
  between checks.  It’s useful mostly when scanning large
  archives and such to abort partway through a long scan. 
   Ideally it would monitor the scan in a watchdog process or
  something so it could abort the scan more precisely but
  unfortunately it doesn’t work that way.
  
 
Regards,
Micah
