Betreff: [BlueOnyx:20162] Re: How is AV-Spam Module doing the geoip and sa-update updates?</span></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Hi Dirk,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">> question about actual AV-SPAM Module for Blueonyx 5209R.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">> How are the updates for Geoip, spamassassin and clamav <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">> planned and configured after installing AV-SPAM at a server?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">> Are there scripts for upates in place an run automatically?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">There are cronjobs for SpamAssassin and Clam AV present:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">SpamAssassin: /etc/cron.d/av-spam-sa-update<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">This updates the rule files bi-daily if I recall correctly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Clam AV: /etc/cron.daily/freshclam<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">This performs a daily update of the virus definitions for Clam AV.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">However: Clamd also does a check on startup and if it realizes it's<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">virus definitions are outdated, it'll force an update during restart of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">the service. Likewise Spamd runs sa-update on first start, too, which<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">brings it up to date.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">All other services either don't auto-update against third party<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">services, or use their own data-source which is generated off the stream<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">of incoming emails. Milter-Greylist for example uses it's own locally<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">stored DB3 database and Milter-GeoIP stores its data in MySQL.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">So upon installation of the packages you don't have to configure<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">anything for these updates to be performed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">-- <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">With best regards<o:p></o:p></p>
