The best +way to update signatures is probably to setup a cron job to do so. + +The following four sources of signatures are used by default: +1) SaneSecurity +2) MSRBL (Realtime Blacklists) +3) SecuriteInfo +4) MalwarePatrol + +These sources are fully tweakable via the config file. Also refer to the +documentation included with the package which provides configuration and +setup infomation. + +The following are the URLs for each signature source: +SaneSecurity: http://www.sanesecurity.com/index.htm +SecuriteInfo: http://www.securiteinfo.com/services/clamav_unofficial_malwares_signatures.shtml +MSRBL: http://www.msrbl.com/ +MalwarePatrol: http://www.malware.com.br/ + +A sample cron entry is included in the package docs; please make appropriate +changes to it and add it to root's crontab. + +You must have clamav installed to run this. Also, if you are using a firewall +on your server, you may have to allow rsync traffic, as MSRBL sigs are +downloaded using rsync. |
