Hi, I'm using clamav-0.91rc1 on Solaris10/sparc. I encountered a problem during database update (running freshclam manually) today
# freshclam ClamAV update process started at Tue Jun 5 10:01:21 2007 main.inc is up to date (version: 43, sigs: 104500, f-level: 14, builder: sven) ERROR: getfile: daily-2570.cdiff not found on remote server (IP: 202.158.56.242) ERROR: getpatch: Can't download daily-2570.cdiff from database.clamav.net ERROR: getfile: daily-2570.cdiff not found on remote server (IP: 202.158.56.242) ERROR: getpatch: Can't download daily-2570.cdiff from database.clamav.net ERROR: getfile: daily-2570.cdiff not found on remote server (IP: 202.158.56.242) ERROR: getpatch: Can't download daily-2570.cdiff from database.clamav.net WARNING: Incremental update failed, trying to download daily.cvd Downloading daily.cvd [100%] WARNING: Mirror 202.158.56.242 is not synchronized.

Giving up on database.clamav.net... Update failed. Your network may be down or none of the mirrors listed in freshclam.conf is working. Check http://www.clamav.net/support/mirror-problem for possible reasons. Freshclam.conf is set to use databse.clamav.net (the default), which in ID points to two hosts : # host database.clamav.net database.clamav.net is an alias for db.local.clamav.net. db.local.clamav.net is an alias for db.id.clamav.net. db.id.clamav.net has address 222.124.18.201 db.id.clamav.net has address 202.158.56.242 Now the question is, why did freshclam insist on using 202.158.56.242, even after "WARNING: Mirror 202.158.56.242 is not synchronized. Trying again in 5 secs..." and finally says "Giving up on database.clamav.net". Why didn't it try the other host first.
