Matus, thanks for your very quick reply! This is what "PrivateMirror" does. It turns DNS off and uses IMS. > > Maybe you should use "DatabaseMirror" instead to check for actual versions.
Right, however, it looks like if I use DatabaseMirror with my private mirror hostname, then the instance running freshclam will then still go out to the Internet to check for something, maybe timestamp info? “Querying current.cvd.clamav.net” I’m trying to avoid having the instances running freshclam go out to the Internet. > Seems you just did not get what DatabaseCustomURL means - it configures > additional URLs, it does not replace standard URLs of > http://mirror/main.cvd > etc. What I found in man freshclam.conf: “”” DatabaseCustomURL STRING With this option you can provide custom sources (http:// or file://) for database files. This option can be used multiple times. Default: disabled “”" Sorry, I didn’t get “it configures additional URLs, it does not replace standard URLs” from “you can provide custom sources…for database files”. Perhaps there is another reference for this attribute that says that? I would have thought that if you specified a custom URL for a database file, then any reference to that file should use the custom URL. Obviously that is not the case here, but I’m wondering if that is intended or if it’s an error? Is there a reason that some of freshclam can use a custom URL but some of it is hardcoded to a document root? I appreciate the help and the quick replies!
