Kaspersky Lab kaspersky anti-virus 5.5 for proxy server Mode D'Emploi

 

We strongly recommend that you set up the keepup2date component to 
update the databases every hour! 

After a successful update, a command specified as the value of the 
PostUpdateCmd parameter in the [updater.options] section of the 
configuration file will be executed. By default, this command will automatically 
initiate reloading of the anti-virus databases. Incorrect modification of that 
parameter may prevent the application from using the updated databases or 
cause it to function erroneously. 

 

All settings of the keepup2date component are stored in the [updater.*] 
sections of the configuration file. 

If your network has a complicated structure, we recommend that you download 
updates from Kaspersky Lab’s update servers every hour and place them in a 
network directory. To keep other networked computers constantly updated, 
configure the local computers to copy the updates from that directory. For 
detailed instructions on creation of a public directory, see section 4.1.3 on p. 23. 

The updating process can be scheduled to run automatically using the cron 
utility (see section 4.1.1 on p. 21) or started manually from the command line 
(see section 4.1.2 on p. 22). Starting the keepup2date component requires root 
or kluser user privileges. 

4.1.1. Automatic updating of the anti-virus 

databases 

You can schedule regular automatic updates for the anti-virus databases using 
the  cron  service.  You can configure cron  either manually or using the 
keepup2date.sh script located in the /opt/kav/5.5/kav4proxy/setup/ directory.  

In order to create a сron task updating the anti-virus databases every hour, enter 
the following in the command line: 

# /opt/kav/5.5/kav4proxy/setup/keepup2date.sh –install 

To delete the cron task for hourly updating of the anti-virus databases, enter the 
following in the command line: 

# /opt/kav/5.5/kav4proxy/setup/keepup2date.sh –uninstall
