Use Clam Antivirus to protect your Linux against viruses

Official homepage: http://www.clamav.net/
The latest version is 0.88. You must use the latest version to upgrade the virus database.

 

System Requirements: refer to the original official document below

Quote:
Requirements
The following elements are required to compile ClamAV:
Zlib and zlib-devel packages
GCC compiler Suite (both 2.9x and 3.x are supported)
The following packages are optional but highly recommended:
Bzip2 and bzip2-devel Library
Gnu mp 3
It's very important to install the GMP package because it allows freshclam to verify the digital signatures of the virus databases. if freshclam was compiled without GMP support it will display "Security Warning: no support for digital signatures" on every update. you can download gnu mp at http://www.swox.com/gmp/
A note for Solaris/iSCSI users: You must set the ABI system variable to 32 (e.g. setenv Abi 32) before running the configuration script of GMP.

Start Installation
Add group and user first
# Groupadd ClamAV

(Clamav-0.88 requirements zlib version is relatively high, my as4 system comes with 1.2.1.2-1 can not pass, look at the latest version is 1.2.3, huh, too lazy to upgrade)

So far, installation is complete

Use freshclam to upgrade the virus database:

# Clamscan ./
Kill all files and directories in the current directory!
# Clamscan-R ./
Scan and kill the Dir directory,
# Clamscan dir
Kill all files and directories under the Dir directory!
# Clamscan-r dir

Other differences
-L [path] [file name] add scan report
# Clamscan-L/var/log/clamscan. log/
-- Move [path] to move the virus file ..
-- Remove [path] Delete Virus files
-- Unzip (unrar) decompress the compressed file for scanning

The path of clamscan is/usr/local/ClamAV/bin/clamscan.
