UCK is approaching the 2.0 milestone with many major improvements,
building a new base for all Ubuntu remastering operations of the
future.

We hope the new release will be out on 1st July 2007 and to celebrate
the big jump we'd like to have a brand new shining logo for our
beloved project.

If you want to partecipate, please check the official contest page on
UCK's website:

Hi,

If you are running some old mailserver (RedHat 6.2 or 7.3 on a P3 
500MHz), you might wanna look at amavis-0.2.4.tar.gz at

    http://crashrecovery.org/amavis.html

(the old fast one, without perl) which now also automaticly selects and
configures to use ClamAV 0.90.2 if installed.

Recently we found out that McAfee's command-line AV scanner uvscan 
version 4.x cannot be used anymore as the scan.dat file has been 
changed in format. The reader is advised to upgrade to version 5.x to 
be able to continue to run amavis-0.2.x.

However with the release of amavis-0.2.4 one can drop uvscan in favor 
for ClamAV 0.90.2 (clamdscan) AntiVirus scanner, a opensource and 100% 
free package. Make sure to only run clamdscan by querying throught 
clamd. Running clamscan barebones and standalone is a broken option 
IMHO. When correctly used and configured clamav even hits the bricks of 
the road on your old mailservers...

     # clamdscan virus-20070423-3662M
       /var/virusmails/root/virus-20070423-3662: Worm.Stration.pac-1 FOUND

       ----------- SCAN SUMMARY -----------
       Infected files: 1
       Time: 0.842 sec (0 m 0 s)  (on a PIII 500MHz, 128Mb RAM RedHat 6.2
                                    machine )

For more details see http://crashrecovery.org/amavis/INSTALL.ClamAV
and http://crashrecovery.org/amavis/ChangeLog.html
