Re: [Clamav-users] clamav-milter problem

Hi ,
I uncomment the line TCPSocket 3310 on /usr/local/etc/clamav.conf but 
when I run the command:
/usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter -blo /var/run/clmilter.sock
it says:
connect: Connection refused
Can't talk to clamd server at 127.0.0.1 on port 3310
Check your entry for TCPSocket in /usr/local/etc/clamav.conf

I user Suse-2.4.7-SMP version on mainframe . Is there any problem with 
this port on this type of machine.

Look at that file and comment out the line that has:

TCPSocket 3310

(My recommendation). YMMV.

Re: [Clamav-users] Setting up Clamav-Milter correctly on RedHat Linux 8.0

Of the two problems you mention I suspect the second is the important
issue. Two sockets are created, one by the milter framework to talk to clamav-milter,
one by clamd for clamav-milter and clamdscan to talk to it. Since clamd isn't running
you should concentrate your efforts in that area, not clamav-milter, clamav-milter
won't start unless it finds a clamd to talk to.

I suggest running clamd in the Foreground (see clamav.conf) and noting any errors
that it gives. If that doesn't give you any guidance post the errors here and we'll
see what we can do.

Have you started 'clamd' first?
Does 'ps -ef' show it to be running?
Have you tried using a UNIX domain socket rather than TCP/IP?

Same here. I suspect the 'very slowly' is a result of crontab entries
around the world trying to successfully download the file from the
mirrors over and over again... :-(

Added are viruses which users submitted to us :-) .  Or found by us.

Of course we add new viruses as quickly as possible (they have priority
higher than old ones).

[Clamav-users] A few enhancements?

2004-01-12 Thread Carl Holtje ;021;vcsg6;
All-

I was wondering, if after the mele last evening with the distribution of
new defintions, if it would be possible to configure more control over the
update process... Specifically, I'd like to think that if I had a mirror
site geographically close (relatively) to me, that I would be more likely
to use this mirror than one accross the globe... something of a priority
listing a-la the NTP configuration tag...

Secondly, is there a way to determine which version of the definitions are
currently used in the system? Freshclam reports this information upon
update, but I'd like this information available, if even in the 'freshclam
-V' output...

Thanks so much!

Carl

Isn't that what mirros.txt is for? Or /usr/local/etc/freshclam.conf, on 
newer versions?

Just change the first entry in mirrors.txt to your closest mirror.
If you use freshclam.conf, just add another DatabaseMirror line before 
database.clamav.net.

Running a milter from within sendmail (i.e. having a sendmail which supports
mailters at runtime) is not the same as being able to build new milters. You will need
to have the milter SDK for that.

Hi all,

I have got some false positives but the files are too big for the form

The false positives are occuring with boot disk images and iso files.
The implicated signatures are :

Any way to report them ?

What do the different debug levels log?  Specifically, what log level only

When enabling debug is there an option to direct the output to syslog?

Well, yes, obviously, but could you maybe take a recent representative
update and give us an idea of what the added viruses are like?  Just so
that we get an approximate feeling of what's going on.

For example, you mentioned that the newest threats are added the most
quickly, but I don't know if the last time you added an ancient virus was
today or six months ago.

I'm not asking for precise figures, just something a little more concrete
than "we add old and new viruses".

are you on the clamav-virusdb mailing list?  That would let you know
pretty quickly.
Tomasz Kojm sent out an update on Saturday with about 200 old viruses
(main 15)
Denis De Messemacker sent out an update of about 50 newer viri (daily

Diego d'Ambra sent out an update of 5 hot viruses (Dropper.Xombe.A,
Trojan.Xombe.A, HTML_CITIFRAUD.A, and another damaged Swen) (daily 83).

Yes, but it doesn't say whether the viruses are old or new, and looking
them up given the various names used and the quantity of updates is not
very convenient.

Thanks, that puts things into a little perspective.

I'm really just looking for a GENERAL idea.  For example, if you had to
explain to the average user what sort of viruses were being added to the
database...is it MOSTLY new ones?  MOSTLY old ones?  About half and half?

Would it be fair to say that when a new update comes out that it has
likely been triggered by a recent discovery?

The higher the level the more that is debugged (-x9 debugs more than -x4).

In most cases yes, since it's a fairly young project and specialized for 
scanning e-mail it's not that interesting to pump up the number of 
recognized viruses like the commercial alternatives with boot sector 
floppy viruses from the 80's, it's what's in the wild that counts. 
However, last week 7000 signatures were added at once so I guess that 
must have been a lot of old ones.

We have mainly two types of contributors:

- ISP or domain administrators. All those people send mainly new
  versions of virii. With their help, we have newest viruses in very
  short time. I think we can say that we have samples of new spreading
  virii in record times. An example ? When the Sober.C worm began to
  spread, we received about 4 submissions in some hours. And many more
  after it was added to the database.

  > Submissions: 315, 316, 317, 321
  > Senders: Christian Kühn, Peter Surda, Joerg Seyfried, Andreas Grundler
  > Virus name: Sober.C
  > Added: Worm.Sober.C

  Since submissions are checked many times a day, I think we can say
  that new viruses that were sent to us are added to database on 
  a 1 day delay.

- Independant or personal contributors:
  Can send various types of viruses. New, old ones, unknown, Trojans,
  etc. Some of them are crawling the www to find the virii we don't
  have. Their contributions are important since they submit mainly more
  uncommon viruses that ISP do not often receive.

There are actually a _balance_ between old and new viruses we receive.
But, as said T. Papszun, the newests ones have all our attention and are
processed in first.

In conclusion, and to answer your question, we receive actually a
majority of current worms,trojans and viruses that are still in activity.
Those are analysed on a fifo base.
At any time, if fast spreading new virus is received, it preempts the 
other submissions.

Hope this mail answers your questions.

I got the same log entry around midnight local time (GMT+11 with Daylight 
Savings Time :) - when I ran it manually this morning, it worked fine.

As per the string of emails on a similar subject earlier in the list, it 
would appear that there was some delay with mirror updates and such (eg: 
MD5 file gets updated then the DB gets updated) that is now becoming 
visible/obvious due to the larger DB's taking longer to update (perhaps).

Each morning when I review my machine's log entries (sent via email :) I 
manually try a "freshclam" if I see any update ERRORs. I only get worried 
about it if I can't get an update to work after trying for an entire day...

How about a community run WIKKI database. If a submission process was set 
up such that when a new virus signature was added to the DB an entry with 
the signature name was easily added to the WIKKI. A basic description can 
be provided (eg: that supplied when the virus was submitted, etc). This can 
then be enhanced as required by the community.

If the resource is something the community wants, it can put a bit of time 
and effort into it to make it grow without having to significantly increase 
the workload of the ClamAV team.

Has anyone looked through the documentation/website licenses of the "big 
(money) players" like NAI, Sophos, Trend... ? For sure it'd be ok to 
_link to_ their sites, but maybe it's also possible to collect 
descriptions from their sites to build our own...

I'm not sure if a WiKi would be a good idea, perhaps something like a 
"documentation team" (as loosely organized as we like) and some sql 
driven, searchable site would be better?

Thanks very much, it did.  For what it's worth, the response time of the
ClamAV team to new outbreaks is very often better than expensive
commercial services, and is one of the main selling points of the system.

Agreed regarding "no legal problems" - wasn't sure how the "Big Guys" would 
like it to find us linking our entries to their descriptions :)

If we can get away with it, just have the ability to enter links to one or 
more of the other DB's that describe what the virus does. Definitely save 
effort if we're able :)

Cheers,

As a general rule, DNSBLs can pretty much block whatever they want. No 
software can 100% prevent you from being listed in at least one DNSBL.
Looking at the link mentioned
