Solution !

qmail-scanner with ClamAV from ART is the solution !
 
I have to agree. I was skeptical at first but I'm currently using ARTs qmail-scanner. You can install it with yum, it's really easy and efficient. I opted to use a more elaborate antivirus software (Sophos Sweep). Kind of have to support the company seeing as how I am a Sophos Partner. The sweep scanner with ARTs rpm works perfect, even through upgrades of Plesk.

There is no other solution for drweb problems? Strange little piece of software it seems.

drweb should work without keyfile - is that right? If not, then "Key file not found!" is the reason for problems...

I do have

drweb is protecting these e-mails by deleteing virus-mails without notice, which is bad!

What do you mean by - "Don't work"? As far as I can tell from your posting it works fine?

If you're refering to the fact that your virusbase is old ... you should remember to run the drweb/update/update.pl script.
 
you haven't got your key installed, i had this problem and had to manually copy it to /opt/drweb/ and then a restart and volia it works and finds the key

:)
 
I'd actually like to know how to keep it dead.
verytime I shut down Dr web from the Service Management page, it will come back to life on its own a few hours later or the next day.
 
knowing my luck, I'll uninstall and find out it was connected to spamassassin somehow and then the server will crash :)
Is it ok to uninstall drweb? Or is there a .conf file for it somewhere telling it to not do anything?
 
I too would like to know if there is a way to put Dr.Web to sleep and not have it touch any mail or other files (like those in the bin directory of qmail).

I am afraid to uninstall it because I don't want it to break anything. For example, what happens to the files owned by drweb (like files in /var/qmail/bin) if it is uninstalled?
+
 
i think you can do it in the conf files

what happens if you stop the dr web service does mail still get delievered ?
 
I haven't tried disabling the service... again, mostly because there are people that need this server working and I don't want to break anything.

this person seemed to have issues when stopping the service, and so did this person. I think I also remembered reading that someones server kept restarting it after they stopped it (could have been via command line, however)
