This was causing "Mirrors not synchronized" errors if DatabaseMirror
was set to db.au.clamav.net.
I notice db.au.clamav.net was sometime after made a CNAME to
db.us.rr.clamav.net.
Using DatabaseMirror db.au.clamav.net should now be successful as a
result of this change.
(clamavdb.planetmirror.com which was one of db.au.clamav.net is now
uptodate again
but may be the only useable au mirror if db.au.clamav.net is restored
to former settings.)
See earlier postings on list re above.
I did read the previous postings, but I feel my problem is different,
almost as if I have been banned (which I don't believe I should have
been) and the apache config been set to deny my IP , but I haven't been
able to find any documented method of getting this checked out.
What happens when you try wget http://db.us.clamav.net (or uk or jp) ?
As mentioned, http connections to sites returned when querying the
various country entries failed.
wget http://db.uk.clamav.net/daily.cvd
--02:23:55-- http://db.uk.clamav.net/daily.cvd
=> `daily.cvd.2'

Also did you comment out all the other DatabaseMirror entries in
freshclam.conf
when trying db.us.clamav.net etc ?
yes
Is DNSDatabaseInfo set to current.cvd.clamav.net in freshclam.conf ?
yes, see first post
Are proxy settings correct in freshclam.conf (and for wget)?
I use a direct connection so its not needed, and as mentioned
planetmirror works, but as it isn't one of the hosts returned when using
db.au.clamav.net I cant use it.

If not you may want to comment NotifyClamd in freshclam.conf.
Thanks I'm not using clamd, so have commented it out.
