Hi i have a problem with integrating clamav with squivir2 into squid.

Not that it helps with this specific question, but get yourself a real tool. Redirector based virus scanners are flawed by design. You want to look at proxy based scanners like HAVP (http://www.server-side.de/) or ICAP based like c-icap (http://c-icap.sourceforge.net/). They offer performance and
security.



Is anyone using HAVP? I read only one sentence on the home page:

Disadvantage:
If the scanning process is too slow and the file is larger than the defined "hold back data" you can still receive a virus! If the file contains a virus and the file is bigger than the "hold back data" the download will be cancelled with no warning. If you try to download the file again you will get the error message (this feature is not implemented yet).

My opinion: this is a no-go!

And ICAP is only working with Squid-3, this is not included in my distribution! I don't want to compile squid every time when there is a bugfix.

Regards!

Frank
