README.fedora
Please note for Fedora and EPEL 7+ we use only systemd. A clamav-milter setup consists of the following three components: * the clamav-milter itself The main configuration is in /etc/mail/clamav-milter.conf and MUST be changed before first use. This can be enabled with: 'systemctl enable clamav-milter.service' * a clamav scanner daemon The daemon is configured by /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf (which MUST be edited before first use). This can be enabled with: 'systemctl enable clamd@scan.service' * the MTA (sendmail/postfix) --> you should know how to install this... When communicating across unix sockets with the clamav-milter, it is suggested to use the /run/clamav-milter/clamav-milter.socket path. You have to add something like INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/run/clamav-milter/clamav-milter.socket, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl to your sendmail.mc. * Changing permissions of directory /var/lib/clamav Whenever ClamAV is upgraded by dnf, the permissions for the /var/lib/clamav directory change to user clamupdate If for some reason you need DatabaseOwner be another user, you may copy /usr/lib/systemd/system/clamav-freshclam.service to /etc/systemd/system/ and add ExecStartPre=+/usr/bin/chown youruser:yourgroup /var/lib/clamav and updates won't break your configuration ... Please add comments to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2023371 if not work for you or if you have any suggestion. Note: =+ on systemd.service (man 5 systemd.service, Special executable prefixes) If the executable path is prefixed with "+" then the process is executed with full privileges. EXAMPLE ======= For clamav-milter, a possible setup might be created by A) On the MTA (assumed hostname 'host-mta') 1. Add to sendmail.mc | INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=inet:6666@host-milter, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl 2. Rebuild sendmail.cf B) On the clamav-milter host (assumed hostname 'host-milter') 1. Install clamav-milter + clamav-milter-upstart packages 2. Set in /etc/mail/clamav-milter.conf | MilterSocket inet:6666 | ClamdSocket tcp:host-scanner:6665 and all the other options which are required on your system 3. Enable clamav-milter.service: | systemctl enable clamav-milter.service Restart your system or execute | systemctl start clamav-milter.service 4. Add something like | iptables -N IN-cmilt | iptables -A IN-cmilt -s host-mta -j ACCEPT | iptables -A IN-cmilt -j DROP | iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 6666 -j IN-cmilt to your firewall setup C) On the clamav-scanner host (assumed hostname 'host-scanner') 1. Install clamd 2. Add to /etc/clamd.d/scan.conf | TCPSocket 6665 | TCPAddr host-scanner comment out possible 'LocalSocket' lines and set all the other options which are required on your system 3. Enable clamd@scan.service: | systemctl enable clamd@scan.service Restart your system or execute | systemctl start clamd@scan.service 4. Add something like | iptables -N IN-cscan | iptables -A IN-cscan -s host-milter -j ACCEPT | iptables -A IN-cscan -j DROP | iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 6665 -j IN-csan to your firewall setup
