we do global scanning currently 2 scanners are called RAV and ClamAV using
the following line

av_scanner = cmdline:/etc/exim/scanner.sh %s:INFECTED:(.+)

In scanner.sh is the following:

--------- start scanner.sh ------------------

#!/bin/sh

logger $0 $1

found=0
VIR=
VIRUS=

/opt/rav/bin/ravav --all $1 2>&1 > /tmp/antivir$$.log
ERR=$?

if [ $ERR -ne 20 ] ; then
if [ $ERR -gt 1 ] ; then
#!/bin/sh

logger $0 $1

found=0
VIR=
VIRUS=

/opt/rav/bin/ravav --all $1 2>&1 > /tmp/antivir$$.log
ERR=$?

if [ $ERR -ne 20 ] ; then
  if [ $ERR -gt 1 ] ; then
        VIRUS="`cat /tmp/antivir$$.log | grep " Infected:" | perl -p -e 's/.*Infected: (.*)/\1/' -p -`"
        logger "infected found by rav: $VIRUS ERR:$ERR"
        echo "infected: $VIRUS"
        found=1
        VIR="$VIRUS $VIR"
  fi
fi
rm -f /tmp/antivir$$.log



/usr/bin/clamdscan --disable-summary --stdout $1 >/tmp/antivir$$.log
ERR=$?

if [ $ERR -gt 0 ] ; then
        VIRUS="`cat /tmp/antivir$$.log | grep "FOUND" | perl -p -e 's/.*: (.*) FOUND/\1/' -p -`"
        logger "infected: $VIRUS"
        echo "infected: $VIRUS"
        found=3
        VIR="$VIRUS $VIR"
fi
rm -f /tmp/antivir$$.log


if [ "$found" -gt 0 ] ; then
        logger "INFECTED: $found $VIR"
        echo "INFECTED: $VIR"
fi


--------- end scanner.sh ------------------

This script works with RAV and ClamAV 0.60, as soon as I try to upgrade
ClamAV to any newer version it flags all attachments as containing viruses.
I've tried a number of times to figure out the problem, but I always end up
by switching back to 0.60

OGW> Are you saying that you don't have the patches that guy wrote or you

Yep, I don't have the patches or the source, just the RPM's

LDAP is too much for what we need (50 users) and I don't understand it.
MySQL is simple, so ideal for storing user info, vacation info, forwarding
etc., and I understand MySQL

If I tell the boss that email will be down for a few days he will "not be
very happy" - and this is one of my secondary jobs so I don't get to play
Linux for more than an hour at a time.

Actually migrating them is easy, just export the LDIF, run it through Perl
to clean it up and import into MySQL, the only part that fails is the
password.

I'll check out Tim's document, I was hoping that someone had maybe put
something together that might fit my needs - it would save a lot of time.


thanks for the help,
