ClamAV
ClamAV:
http://www.clamav.net/
Download:
http://www.clamav.net/downloads http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/download http://www.clamav.net/lang/en/download/sources/ http://downloads.sourceforge.net/clamav/clamav-0.97.tar.gz
Scanning
Simple scan:
/opt/clamav/bin/clamscan [FOLDER]
Options:
-r # recursive search -i # Show only infected -l [file] # log output to file --move=[dir] # move infected --copy=[dir] # copy infected --remove=yes # remove infected
Scan subfolders, show infected only and log results:
/opt/clamav/bin/clamscan -r -i -l scan.txt [FOLDER]
scan stdin:
cat testfile | clamscan -
Help:
man /opt/clamav/share/man/man1/clamscan.1
Updating Definitions
Update virus definitions: (as any user in the clamav group)
/opt/clamav/bin/freshclam
After the first run, fix the database permissions one time, so anyone in the clamav group can update:
sudo chown clamav:clamav /opt/clamav/share/clamav/* sudo chmod 664 /opt/clamav/share/clamav/*
Databases are stored here:
Database directory: /opt/clamav/share/clamav

# Backup previous config mkdir etc-bak ; cp /opt/clamav/etc/* etc-bak/
# remove previous install sudo rm -rf /opt/clamav
# Build and Install # NOTE: this will take several minutes to compile (make) ./configure --prefix=/opt/clamav make clean make sudo make install
# Copy default configs sudo cp /opt/clamav/etc/clamd.conf.sample /opt/clamav/etc/clamd.conf sudo cp /opt/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf.sample /opt/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf

Setup daily update:
# cronjob crontab -e 0 2 * * * /usr/local/bin/freshclam
Configuration
Allow kenneth to edit:
sudo chown kenneth /opt/clamav/etc/*
Configure clamd:
vim /opt/clamav/etc/clamd.conf
Configure freshclam:
vim /opt/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf
Modify both and comment out the Example line:
# Comment or remove the line below. #Example
The configured defaults values can be all viewed with: (and look for errors)
/opt/clamav/bin/clamconf
Testing
Test with:
/opt/clamav/bin/clamscan -r -l scan.txt clamav-$VERSION
Example output:
----------- SCAN SUMMARY ----------- Known viruses: 852104 Engine version: 0.96.5 Scanned directories: 238 Scanned files: 4522 Infected files: 46 Data scanned: 186.71 MB Data read: 201.43 MB (ratio 0.93:1) Time: 22.671 sec (0 m 22 s)
Configure the ClamAV daemon, clamd, for testing. Comment out "Example" line in clamav.conf and save:
vi /opt/clamav/etc/clamd.conf
# Comment or remove the line below. Example
Now try with clamd, which should provide output that is similar to the clamscan command you entered above.
/opt/clamav/bin/clamdscan -l scan.txt clamav-$VERSION
ERROR: Clamd is not configured properly.
Update with:
# uncomment the "Example" line in the etc/freshclam.conf bin/freshclam
Scan folder:
bin/clamscan [folder] bin/clamscan -r [folder] # recursive

Clam AntiVirus Daemon
Start daemon:
/opt/clamav/sbin/clamd
Initial error:
ERROR: Please define server type (local and/or TCP).
Configure:
/opt/clamav/etc/clamd.conf
# TCP port address. # Default: no TCPSocket 3310
Now start clamd.
/opt/clamav/sbin/clamd
To use clamdscan with clamd:
/opt/clamav/bin/clamdscan

man /opt/clamav/share/man/man1/clamdscan.1 man /opt/clamav/share/man/man8/clamd.8
Updates
Virus database
Your virus definition may be out of date:
$ /opt/clamav/bin/clamscan -r -l scan.txt myfolder LibClamAV Warning: ************************************************** LibClamAV Warning: *** The virus database is older than 7 days! *** LibClamAV Warning: *** Please update it as soon as possible. *** LibClamAV Warning: **************************************************
Initially when running freshclam will get the following error:
ERROR: Please edit the example config file /opt/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf ERROR: Can't open/parse the config file /opt/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf
Edit the freshclam.conf and comment out the "Example" line:
sudo chown -R kenneth:kenneth /opt/clamav/etc vi /opt/clamav/etc/freshclam.conf
Modify both and comment out the Example line:
# Comment or remove the line below. #Example
NOTES:
- touch /var/log/clam-update.log
- chmod 600 /var/log/clamupdate.log
- chown clamav /var/log/clamupdate.log
freshclam -d -c 6 -l /var/log/clam-update.log
This checks for a new virus definition database six (6) times a day. Check the /var/log/clam-update.log file
add the freshclam -d -c 6 -l /var/log/clam-update.log to your startup scripts.
