ClamAV is not included in RHEL, but it can be fund in external repositories. Please keep in mind that Red Hat does NOT support these external applications! For clamav - and a whole lot of other apps - check http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/ Best regards, Andrei -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list --------------------------------- Be a PS3 game guru.
