The main purpose +of this software is the integration with mail servers (attachment +scanning). The package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded +daemon, a command line scanner, and a tool for automatic updating via +Internet. + +This build script should build a package that "just works" after install. +You will need to specify a two-letter country code (such as "us") as an +argument to the COUNTRY variable when running the build script (this will +default to "us" if nothing is specified). For example: + COUNTRY=nl ./clamav.SlackBuild + +The package contains a start/stop script: /etc/rc.d/rc.clamav. +I would suggest calling this script from /etc/rc.d/rc.M just +before Sendmail is started with code like: + +# Starting ClamAV daemons +if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.clamav ]; then + /etc/rc.d/rc.clamav start +fi + +The start/stop script will start: clamd, freshclam and clamav-milter. + +** ClamAV, Amavisd-new and SpamAssassin ** +You might want to use amavisd-new to act as an intermediary between Sendmail +and ClamAV (and possible SpamAssassin too). Amavisd-new can be downloaded at +http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/ + +For clamd to be able to scan messages, when called by Amavisd-new, you must +add "clamav" to the "amavis" group (provided that clamd.conf contains the +"User clamav" directive), e.g. run: + + # usermod -G $(id -Gn clamav | tr ' ' ','),amavis clamav + +Be sure to enable "AllowSupplementaryGroups" in clamd.conf and restart clamd. +Also, to enable Amavisd-new to scan ClamAV's log files and produce nice +statistics, the reverse must be done too; add user "amavis" to the group +"clamav" as follows: + + # usermod -G $(id -Gn amavis | tr ' ' ','),clamav amavis + +Add the rc.amavisd script to your /etc/rc.d/rc.M script between the start of +clamav and sendmail, so that the relevant section looks like this: + +# Starting ClamAV daemon: +if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.clamav ]; then + /etc/rc.d/rc.clamav start +fi + +# Starting Amavisd daemon: +if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.amavisd ]; then + /etc/rc.d/rc.amavisd start +fi + +# Start the sendmail daemon: +if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.sendmail ]; then + . /etc/rc.d/rc.sendmail start +fi |
