Looking at my system with 0.70RC-1 installed, I find [$ ls -l /var/lib/clamav total 992 -rw-r--r-- 1 clamav clamav 59601 Mar 26 04:17 daily.cvd -rw-r--r-- 1 clamav clamav 944351 Mar 16 13:48 main.cvd $ locate daily.cvd /var/lib/clamav/daily.cvd /usr/local/share/clamav/daily.cvd $ ls -l /usr/local/share/clamav/ total 976 -rw-r--r-- 1 clamav clamav 47654 Mar 19 12:47 daily.cvd -rw-rw-r-- 1 clamav clamav 944351 Mar 19 12:34 main.cvd So, The updates are going into /var/lib clamav.conf says # Path to the database directory. # Default is the hardcoded directory (mostly /usr/local/share/clamav, # but it depends on installation options). #DatabaseDirectory /var/lib/clamav So, just to be safe, I'm going to uncomment the DatabaseDirectory line, delete /usr/local/share/clamav/*.cvd, and restart everything. .... OK.... it may have been an artifact of the initial installation, but after chaning clamav.conf, stopping sendmail, clamav-milter, and clamd, deleting /usr/local/share/clamav, then restarting the 3 services and running freschclam, it appears everyone is looking at /var/lib/clamav. -- Steve ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
