How to determine what type of files clamav can scan? For example, if there is no unrar installed it can't scan files in it. So is there any way to find out all types of files that clamav can't scan?
View 2 RepliesI am a newbie in ubuntu. I did clamscan on my ubuntu /, and I got the result message as follow. it shows "486 errors" I am wondering if the result is OK or I need to do some action on it.
Known viruses: 968595
Engine version: 0.96.5
Scanned directories: 28067
Scanned files: 131696
Infected files: 0
Total errors: 486
Data scanned: 9020.40 MB
Data read: 17800.31 MB (ratio 0.51:1)
Time: 1349.479 sec (22 m 29 s)"
Also, my engine is 0.96.5. The latest version is 0.97. But "aptitude upgrade" can not upgrade the engine to 0.97. I understand 0.97 is still on testing. I am wondering if I can just stay with 0.96.5 and wait for the 0.97 passing all tests. if so, does it cause any security issue?

View 5 Replies View Relatedwhen I attempt to scan anything with clamav from a terminal I get the following error:
ERROR: Can't create temporary directory /var/lib/clamav/clamav-da584cb3f4ee38529f0460ad6f7dc632
Hint: The database directory must be writable for UID 999 or GID 100
Which I take to mean that there are no virus definitions installed. I use the "freshclam" command. Which results in the following error:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI installed CLAM AV and also the GUI (CLAMTK).
1). What is the console command to scan all of Fedora, not just a specific directory, but the entire computer?
2). Even tho I have consulted the CLAM AV site on how to update to the latest virus signature database, I don't either understand what they are telling me to do, or I am not "getting" how to do it.
As per these instructions, I got up to the end of the "Acquiring an Ubuntu filesystem" step (where it asks you to mount the newly created Ubuntu partition) and ran into a problem: The partition won't mount, as the file system type cannot be determined because I cannot remember the file system used during installation. Is there any command that prints the file system type of GPT partitions?

Ideally, I could just look in /proc but I don't see anything there and I would like to be able to do so from a script perhaps written in bash or perl. Is there some place to get this info, say in a config file somewhere?

I recently ran a virus scan on my CentOS server using ClamAV's "clamscan" command to scan my entire system for virus. After the scan was complete it says that I have 1 infected file on my computer. I COMPLETELY FREAKED OUT! Is there some kind of log that I should read to see where the infected files are? Also does ClamAV just scan your system for virus or does it scan and remove the virus on the computer.If you know of an alternative open source security software,

View 1 Replies View Relatedwhat a horrendous piece of software. Ive been at it 3 days trying to do something that ought to be simple and everytime i solve one problem another problem arises. at first I removed the old clamav 9.5 or something. I got the latest ubuntu release btw, and Clamav used to work when i first installed it in the previous ubuntu release. anyway, it asked me to upgrade, so since synaptic doesnt have the latest, i downloaded from sourceforge. I did the whole ./configure gave me errors like need build-essentials-- which i then did, error: need zlib.dv--- I did that one too. Now two more errors that i need to fix so I can compile it.

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy windows partition is infected and I recall that it is supposed to be possible from the linux partition with ClamAV. Now I'm running Fedora12 but this forum is much more active and I suppose that doesn't make a big difference. I tried to find something on google but most procedures seem to involve a Live CD but it would be more convenient for me to just do it from my linux distro running. Is there anything I have to be aware of or is it literally just scanning the windows partition with ClamAV?
