There's no need to create a CVD if all you want is to use official clamav signatures and non-official signatures.
Use "sigtool -u" with a clamav cvd to unpack it and choose the signatures you want. You can then point clamscan or clamdscan to the directory that contains your signatures, official or non. -Alain > On Dec 16, 2016, at 12:52 PM, "filipecalderon66...@yahoo.com" > <filipecalderon66...@yahoo.com> wrote: > > Thanks Al.
