Software - ClamAv configuration problem via apt-get. freshmeadow - 26.02.2007, 23:32 Uhr Titel: ClamAv configuration problem via apt-get.
Greetings from Guelph!
I have installed ClamAv anti-virus scanner on Kanotix 2006-1 RC4 via apt-get, including the clamav-daemon. I also chose a local database mirror in Canada to update the virus database. I have installed clamav before on a Knoppix hd install and on Kanotix 2005-04 with no problems. When I run freshclam I get this message:
root@KanotixBoxP111:/home/jkelsh# freshclam
ERROR: Parse error at line 20: Option NotifyClamd requires string argument.
WARNING: You must specify at least one database mirror.
Can anyone advise?
Thank you.

I would use the free bitdefender command line scanner, clamav is a very bad scanner.

Thank you Kano. I will remove -- purge ClamAv and install bitdefender.
I really enjoy using your system and look forward to future developments.

Just a further word to everyone. I have installed and used bitdefender as Kano recommended and I would also recommend it to all. It is very easy to install and scans very quickly.
Cheers!
