I didn't upgrade zimbra's clamav to a newer version or anything. This is a RHEL4 system, and I do have a regular clamav rpm installed, and I could use that instead. Rather, I just opted for redhat's package to start up freshclam and not clamd, as there is a local copy of havp/squid combo to virus-filter the web traffic (this is our mail/squid server).
I presume it wouldn't be such a big deal to have zimbra just use the distribution-provided clamd, but there's just no need -- havp uses libclam only and there's no need for redhat's clamd running, only zimbra's and it works. Slow startup, but works nevertheless. |
Just wanted to add my affirmation here that my AMD Sempron (don't even know the speed but plenty fast as a Zimbra server) takes slightly over 2 minutes to load the database. I saw that the interval had already been increased to 120 seconds but apparently the 180 seconds mentioned here are the magic number.
