If you ARE using the amavisd from epel, you should follow the instructions from: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Amavisd not http://campworld.net/thewiki/pmwiki.php/LinuxServersCentOS/Cent6VirtMailServer as it uses rpmfusion, if I recall right. But definitely not epel. Part of the reason I did not follow its anti-spam portion. The install should have been: yum install amavisd-new clamav clamav-devel clamd spamassassin Then there are group permission problems. I have entered a bug report for epel on this: 906396 You need to: gpasswd -a clam amavis chkconfig clamd on chkconfig amavisd on Then there are some specific run directories that have to match. I am in the Orlando airport and they are blocking my SSH back to my server to get the correct changes but my old notes with me say something to the effect: in /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf change .pid to match in /etc/clamd.conf But I can't get to the exact info until I get home this afternoon. Then the var directory is not created by the rpm. You need to: cd /var/spool/amavisd mkdir var chown amavis:amavis var chmod 700 var Though one follow soujourner said 750 for the whole tree. Finally: sa-update service amavisd start service clamd start chkconfig amavisd on Then test with: telnet localhost 10024 ehlo localhost quit telnet localhost 10025 ehlo localhost quit postconf -e 'content_filter=amavisfeed:[127.0.0.1]:10024' cd /usr/share/doc/amavisd-new-2.6.4/test-messages perl -pe 's/./chr(ord($&)^255)/sge' <sample.tar.gz.compl | zcat | tar xvf - And test with: sendmail -i user@xxxxxxxxxx < sample-virus-simple.txt sendmail -i user@xxxxxxxxxx < sample-spam-GTUBE-junk.txt Check maillog to see what is happening. Depending on your amavisd.conf you may be dropping these or tagging them, but letting them go through. I really need to publish MY howto. But only after I go live in about a month... _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
