Apparently the freshclam.conf file that is read by freshclam has to be in /usr/local/etc whereas I've always put it in the same place as clamd.conf, /etc. The startup script for freshclam in /etc/rc.d/init.d states:
start)
gprintf "Starting Clam AntiVirus Update Daemon: "
touch ${LOGFILE}; chown ${USER}:${USER} ${LOGFILE}
daemon /usr/sbin/freshclam \
--config-file=/etc/freshclam.conf \
--user ${USER} \
--quiet \
But since I'm using freshclamcron to call freshclam the freshclam
service is not active.
I'm using freshclamcron with this line
/usr/sbin/freshclam --quiet --log=/var/log/clamav/freshclam.log
--daemon-notify=/etc/clamd.conf
I guess freshclam still looks for the config file in /usr/local/etc. I
probably need to add --config-file=/usr/local/etc to the freshclamcron
script. Does that make sense?
