Nick Hadaway Updated by Andrea Barisani 18/05/2004 Setting up clamav-milter on Gentoo Linux Step 1 - Configure clamd Check /etc/clamd.conf, default values should work out of the box but read and understand all the options especially if you are going to use it on production boxes. Step 2 - Tell the init script to start clamd as well as freshclam and the milter itself. nano -w /etc/conf.d/clamd START_CLAMD=yes START_FRESHCLAM=yes START_MILTER=yes Step 3 - Edit sendmail.mc Add these lines to sendmail.mc before any any other INPUT_MAIL_FILTER lines and before MAILER(local) NOTE: ANY INPUT_MAIL_FILTER definitions put before these lines will be discarded due to the use of confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS Make this your first mail filter. :) INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clmilter',`S=local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clmilter')dnl Step 4 - Rebuild sendmail.cf cd /etc/mail m4 sendmail.mc > sendmail.cf Step 5 - Start clamad /etc/init.d/clamd start Step 6 - Restart sendmail /etc/init.d/sendmail restart
