ClamAV 0.98.3

[Paul Welsh]

This release is, I believe, horribly buggy.

Getting this regularly in maillog:
May 21 19:00:40 mail MailScanner[25244]: Clamd::ERROR:: COULD NOT CONNECT
TO CLAMD, RECOMMEND RESTARTING DAEMON :: .

Having to monitor and restart hourly.

Roll on a fix.

If you haven?t already, check that the clamd service is running, and check the /var/log/clamav/clamd.log for clues?

After I abandoned the use of AVG Free Edition for
Linux<http://download.avgfree.com/filedir/inst/avg2013flx-r3118-a6926.i386.deb>
at http://free.avg.com/gb-en/download.prd-alf the problems with clamd
crashing regularly have ceased.

f-prot is working fine with clamd.

In fact f-prot is, I reckon, a good choice. Very fast, no daemon.

One I haven't tested but looked promising in terms of price and reputation
was ESET Linux File Server Security -
http://www.eset.co.uk/Business/File-Security/Linux-File-Server - available
at https://shop.eset.co.uk/Store/File-Security for, I believe, ?83 per
server per year.
