This happens sometimes, usually 5 seconds later the update is made, other times it takes more time but it is not a real problem, it just means that freshclam found a different (old) version in that server at that time. > The main.cvd data base is not updated. Yes it is, main.cvs has not changed since Aug 16 (plus or minus a day if you take into account time zone), so both of your servers are updated. > I have another server that I > upgraded to ClamAV 0.88.4 as well.

One possible solution is to add fall-back servers to your configuration, freshclam tries one server after another.
