I'll keep this short since I'm not sure that I have permission to
post yet. I'm getting the digest, but being told my postings here
are not allowed. According to what I understood from the various
instructions and nag messages, I must subscribe first to the digest
and that then allows me to post here.
Not particularly clear, but I've done that and am receiving (and
nuking) the digest, since I'd rather work here.
So let's see what happens.
In short, I nuked 0.85.x, got rid of all the files I could find. I
then installed 0.87.1, checked versions, run both clamscan and
freshclam just fine manually without any rootmail or messages
complaints, but when invoked from a shell script that does nothing
more than call the program with switches, I get a nag in rootmail
that declares that my installation is outdated and I should read the
FAQ and upgrade to 0.87.1
Of course the FAQ doesn't have any entry addressing this problem.
The shell script is simply
DATE=`date '+%Y%m%d'`
echo "Current date is "$DATE
cd /
clamscan --recursive --infected >
/home/andy/Desktop/$DATE"_infected.txt" &
It worked fine with the previous version, it still works and finds
the test virus files, and thankfully nothing else, but it then
results in the nag about upgrading.
TIA, Thanks, Andy
