Hi,
First of all, two enthusiastic thumbs up for including support for F-Prot 6.
I installed the new scanner on a backup MX for now. I do have some issues
which are fixable:
The installer keeps 'detecting' the binary vars incorrect. I end up with
this:
my $fpscand_binary='/usr/local/sbin/fpscan';
my $fpscan_binary='';
The fpscanD binary is in /usr/local/sbin but it will not supply complete
version info, the fpscan binary is able to supply version info and is linked
to /usr/local/bin. For now I changed it to:
my $fpscand_binary='';
my $fpscan_binary='/usr/local/bin/fpscan ';
Which makes more sense at the generation of the version file as well since
you call $fpscan_binary. That line will not execute and has to change:
open(FP,"$fpscan_binary --version|")||die "failed to call $fpscan_binary
--version - $!";
This is the only issue I found. The daemon scanner itself works fine (on
EICAR at least). I haven't tested the normal scanner.
And a completely different -but related- question;
I configure QS with --scanners "fpscand,clamdscan,fast_spamassassin". The
installer has a mind of its own, and changes the sequence of calling
scanners to clamdscan,fpscand,fast_spamassassin which, alphabetically, makes
some sense.
To me however this is not logical: I'd like the scanner which I paid good
money for to be called first. Basically I want to know whether or not it is
still worth it's money; ClamAV should not catch anything anymore if the
first called F-Prot scanner is doing its work properly.
So the question realy is; is it possible for the installer to maintain the
order in which the scanners are listed in the --scanner var or will I have
to continue to edit output @scanner_array after each install?
Best regards,
Arno Slatius

qmail-scanner-2.06-rc1 (new f-prot support)
Hi there
A new version of Qmail-Scanner is on the cards. I've aggregated the
f-prot patches that have been received, and given them a bit of testing,
but don't know how good they'll be in production. So this is an
opportunity for people using F-prot to give it a go and see if it sings.
There are also two bugfixes: one for the unzip routine and one for sophie.
This is available only via the following direct link, but if I hear
nothing negative within a week, it will be re-released as 2.06
