Hi All (again),

On thing I forgot-- There is a third file in the zip file, 
clamdb_template.html.  Put this file in the same directory as your virus 
definition files.  The Perl program uses it to generate the html file.

Hi All,

First: This message is about the second Perl doo-dad I've added to
ClamAV. I don't think I've written anything incredible in either script,
but I thought, can we add a ./contrib folder to the next ClamAV distro,
for user-submitted utilities, etc?  The qmail distro has such a folder,
which I've made use of.  I'm sure other ClamAV users out there have
excellent work to contribute.  Here is my second contribution.

I wrote a Perl program which generates an HTML table of the viruses
protected by ClamAV.  It answers the question, What viruses does ClamAV
detect?  This was the first question I asked this list.  I was told to
just look at the viruses.db and viruses.db2 files, but decided I didn't
like doing that, and my users certainly wouldn't do that, so here you go.

You can see the output here:
<http://qmail.macalester.edu/>

Download the program here:
<http://www.macalester.edu/~fines/clamdb.zip>

The zip file contains two files, the Perl program and some lines you'll
need to add to your clamav.conf before running it.  Make sure the values
in the lines are right for your installation (paths, etc.).  The Perl
program thinks clamav.conf is in /usr/local/etc.  You'll have to edit it
if clamav.conf is elsewhere.

I suggest putting it in a cron job so it gets run nightly.

By the way, I've only been using ClamAV for a week or so now, but it is a
pretty fantastic piece of software.

Good luck,
Ted
