Hi, everyone.
I just installed clamav and clamav-db from the SuSE 9.3 DVD. I immediately did
an on-line update and downloaded the security fix.
I now have clamav (v. 0.87.1-0.1) and clamav-db (v. 0.83.4).
I then went to www.clamav.net and noted that the latest stable version is
listed as 0.87.1, so I am assuming (??) that I do have the latest version on
my pooter.
In K-Mail I then clicked and told K-Mail to use
Clamav, and to send anything it detected to a folder I created.
At this point I would appreciate guidance on the following....
1) Have I taken the necessary steps to install and activate clamav, or have I
overlooked anything? Do I need to "turn it on" or is clamav now running?
2) How do I update the virus definitions in clamav-db? I did not see anything
on the clamav.net website about updating the database, but maybe I overlooked
what was right in my face?? :o)
3) What is "freshclam," and do I need to get that? If yes, where do I get it
and what do I do with the file once I have it?
Many thanks!
Gil
