Glad to see some updates! I had feared the worst for the project. I have a pretty hefty test environment at home and may have to fire up a new test lab to try out 0.33. Thanks for updating!

Are you referring to this wiki?

I have tried these steps a few times, the only thing is that i am having troubles with getting it to find the database files as it looks for them in /usr/share/clamav which doesn’t get created by default with installfog.sh, i have to create it, and even at that point no amount of chmod or chown will allow clamav to download it’s goodies to that directory. Are you running 12.04 or should I try running 10.04LTS?

[quote=“chad-bisd, post: 8593, member: 18”]I was able to modify my FOG server to host the clamav updates on the root of the web server and change the clamav settings in the init.gz for the clients so they checked the fog server for the daily updates, rather that going out to the internet and downloading them.[/quote]

That sounds great! Do you have some ins for me? I have unzipped the init.gz a few times in a couple of past installs and tried some stuff with no luk.

First,

Hello fog forums! I just stumbled across fog, and I love it! It has so much potential, just one problem…I cannot get fog to update it’s av on the client machine once it’s been pxe booted and I have issues a task to it such as virus scan, the task goes through fine, it just fails to resolve current.cvd.clamav.net and it states that no database files was found in /usr/share/clamav.

First off, after I do the installfog.sh and installs clamav it installs the default database directory in /var/lib/clamav
I have tried to change the database directory to /usr/share/clamav and I get "database directory must be writable for guid 121 or 128. I have tried changing ownership of the file and chmod the file to no avail.

here’s some things that I am sure that are working: DNS is working on the Fog server itself, I can ping google, I can even ping local machines via their host name on my domain. Everything else works fine with the install, except the boot time scan which is sorely needed in the environment. I am running Ubuntu Desktop Edition 12.04LTS. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
