Hello,
I run clamAV 0.99.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 (kernel 4.4.0-62-generic #83) direct from cli and have automated DB updates configured. I do not use clamTK at all as I do not usually run a desktop gui on that box. My question is about DB updates. I have not had one update in the past 4 or 5 weeks. Is this normal ?

The mail sent to root when the daily DB update process has completed always is :

        ClamAV update process started at Thu Jan 19 13:00:01 2017

        Database updated (5600633 signatures) from db.us.clamav.net (IP: 
64.22.33.90)

There is never an update apparently and I smell something fishy (no pun 
intended).
Because I ran that particular box behind a proxy (Privoxy), I included the 
following in/ etc/clamav/freshclam.conf:
        HTTPProxyServer 127.0.0.1
        HTTPProxyPort 8118

I changed my mirror settings to check that there wasn't a pbm related to one 
mirror not being updated.
They are:
        Checks 24
        DatabaseMirror db.us.clamav.net
        DatabaseMirror db.de.clamav.net
        DatabaseMirror db.jp.clamav.net
        DatabaseMirror db.local.clamav.net
        DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net

Can somebody help me understand what I am doing wrong in the config ?

Thank you, -cedric
