======================================================================

Contents
--------
Clam AntiVirus is a GPL anti-virus toolkit for UNIX (and OS/2). The main purpose of this
software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The package provides
a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon, a command line scanner, and a tool for
automatic updating via Internet. The programs are based on a shared library distributed 
with the Clam AntiVirus package, which you can use with your own software. Most
importantly, the virus database is kept up to date.

This port is brought to you by:
Yuri Dario - mc653 at @mclink dot it, development, porting

A multithread plugin for InetPowerServer is available, ask me for details.


System requirements:
--------------------
- eComStation 1.x,2.x
- OS/2 Warp
- 32bit tcpip stack
- libc 0.6.3 runtime: ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/libc-0.6.3-csd3.wpi (or incoming/gcc)
- libc pathrewriter dll: ftp://ftp.netlabs.org/pub/gcc/contrib/klibccfg.wpi (or incoming)


Installation
------------
The WarpIn installer will handle file installation and WPS object creation.
If you want to install manually, use wic.cmd to extract the files on your disk;
they can be placed everywhere, but the default place is under

	x:/usr/local/clamav

where x: is your preferred drive, so you will end with x:/usr/local/clamav/bin, 
.../share, .../etc (and others).

With 0.90, the programs will look for configuration files only in /etc directory.
Since a new path rewriting tecnique is used, printed messages referring to

	/etc/freshclam.conf or
	/etc/clamd.conf

are referred to the following files

	%ETC%\freshclam.conf or
	%ETC%\clamd.conf

The first configuration file found will be loaded. With previous releases, the 
configuration files were found only when running ClamAV from the same drive
of the installation directory.
It is suggested to copy the default files in .../etc into your %ETC%, so you will
not loose your personal configuration across software upgrades.

Since 0.90, ClamAV uses .exe directory to detect installation directory, so
editing of DatabaseDirectory directive in both freshclam.conf and clamd.conf
is no longer required.
Please note that only clamd and freshclam are using configuration files, so if you
use clamscan, the -d option must be used.

Please set

	LocalSocket \socket\clamd

in configuration files.
This version does not require patches to build: Innotek gcc support is included
in current source code.
Since the virus definition files is updated often, and now libclamav warns you when
it is 7 days old, I removed the file from the distribution.
Since a few versions, the log file are write locked to prevent running the daemons
(clamd and freshclam) multiple times. If you want to be able to read logs while
daemons are runnning, just uncomment and set to

	LogFileUnlock yes

option in clamd.conf and/or freshclam.conf. Please note that this will disable the above
feature.


Known problems
--------------
-  This kind of reports
   LibClamAV Error: fileblobDestroy: file not saved: report to bugs at clamav.net
   LibClamAV Error: Can't create temporary file
   D:\temp/clamav-e2d8ef39da7124cb/bouncez15562: File exists
   are generated by a libc06 (emx) limit in mktemp() handling.
-  Use / as directory separator, use of \ could lead to path errors.


Support
-------
Since this is a OpenSource freeware product there are no
formal support options available.


Donations
---------
Since this software is ported for free, donations are welcome! you can use PayPal
to donate me and support OS/2 developement. See my homepage for details, or ask :-)
At least, a post card is welcome!
