During update, I got these warning messages:
> WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
My latest fedora rpm packages are:
clamav-0.95.3-1301.fc13.i686
clamav-update-0.95.3-1301.fc13.i686
clamav-lib-0.95.3-1301.fc13.i686
clamav-filesystem-0.95.3-1301.fc13.noarch
clamav-data-0.95.3-1301.fc13.noarch
> WARNING: Current functionality level = 44, recommended = 53
> DON'T PANIC! Read http://www.clamav.net/support/faq
I read the FAQ and it does not tell me where this setting is set.
To wit: I found only thee 2 bullets in the faq:
-----------------------------------------
* Starting from ClamAV 0.9x, whenever your ClamAV engine
becomes outdated and the difference between the functionality level
required by the CVD and the functionality level supported by your ClamAV
engine is more than 3, freshclam refuses to check for updates more often
than 6 times per day. The reason for this is that there is no use to
generate traffic on our mirrors if you cannot take advantage of all the
signatures anyway. If you really care about catching as much malware as
possible and you want to check for updates more often than 6 times per
day, then you should also not run such an old version of ClamAV. This
feature was introduced after our mirror sysadmins complained that really
old versions of ClamAV were consuming more than 50% of their bandwidth
to download some CVD updates that were almost useless to them (due to
lack of support for mdb signatures).
* WARNING: Current functionality level = 1, required =
o The functionality level of the database determines which
scanner engine version is required to use all of its
signatures. If you don't upgrade immediately you will still
be able to download the latest CVD updates but the engine
won't be able to use ALL of them.
-----------------------------------------
I see nothing about where and how to set this setting.
> WARNING: Clamd was NOT notified: Can't find or parse configuration
file /path/to/clamd.conf
Neither could I. I did a full find starting from /
clamd.conf was not even installed. Where do I find one or how do
I construct one?
Furthermore, I thought if clamav should run a daemon, how about
a start/stop script for it in /etc/init.d ?? so that it can be
managed by
the system services?
How about providing a default clamd.conf in either /etc or
/etc/sysconfig ???
Best regards,
JD
