Command to display freshclam manual in Linux: $ man 5 freshclam

The service is called clamav-daemon.service.Start it and enable it to start at boot. Testing the software. In order to make sure ClamAV and the definitions are installed correctly, scan the EICAR test file (a harmless signature with no virus code) with clamscan. Since there is no native MacOS build for ClamAV, we need to first install a mechanism to package ClamAV for installation onto MacOS. We will use MacPorts for this procedure. Install MacPorts and PreRequisites. Install Xcode from the Mac App Store: Launch the Mac App Store by clicking the 'App Store' menu item from the Apple menu. I think it's a mistake to not create at leat man page for clamav, wich is the name of the package. – m3nda Jun 23 '15 at 3:06 7 If you want to check all files of the system, then you should use clamscan -r -bell -i -exclude-dir='^/sys' / because in /sys/ are no real files and not excluing it would cause reading errors.

NAME

freshclam.conf - Configuration file for Clam AntiVirus database update tool

DESCRIPTION

The file freshclam.conf configures the Clam AntiVirus Database Updater, freshclam(1).

FILE FORMAT

The file consists of comments and options with arguments. Each line which starts with a hash (#) symbol is ignored by the parser. Options and arguments are case sensitive and of the form Option Argument. The arguments are of the following types:
NUMBER
Unsigned integer.

DIRECTIVES

Clamd

When an option is not used (hashed or doesn't exist in the configuration file) freshclam takes a default action.

Default: LOG_LOCAL6
PidFile STRING
This option allows you to save the process identifier of the daemon to a file specified in the argument.
Default: disabled
LogVerbose BOOL
Enable verbose logging.
Default: disabled
DNSDatabaseInfo STRING
This directive enables database and software version checks through DNS TXT records.
Default: enabled, pointing to current.cvd.clamav.net
DatabaseMirror STRING
Server name where database updates are downloaded from. In order to download the database from the closest mirror you should configure freshclam to use db.xy.clamav.net where xy represents your country code. If this option is given multiple times, freshclam(1) tries them in the order given. It's strongly recommended that you use db.xy.clamav.net as the first mirror and database.clamav.net as the second.
Default: database.clamav.net
MaxAttempts NUMBER
How many attempts (per mirror) to make before giving up.
Default: 3 (per mirror)
ScriptedUpdates BOOL
With this option you can control scripted updates. It's highly recommended to keep it enabled.
Default: enabled
CompressLocalDatabase BOOL
By default freshclam will keep the local databases (.cld) uncompressed to make their handling faster. With this option you can enable the compression; the change will take effect with the next database update.
Default: no
HTTPProxyServer STR, HTTPProxyPort NUMBER
Use given proxy server and TCP port for database downloads.
HTTPProxyUsername STR,HTTPProxyPassword STRING
Proxy usage is authenticated through given username and password.
Default: no proxy authentication
HTTPUserAgent STRING
If your servers are behind a firewall/proxy which applies User-Agent filtering, you can use this option to force the use of a different User-Agent header.
Default: clamav/version_number
LocalIPAddress IP
Use IP as client address for downloading databases. Useful for multi homed systems.
Default: Use OS'es default outgoing IP address.
NotifyClamd STRING
Notify a running clamd(8) to reload its database after a download has occurred. The path for clamd.conf file must be provided.
Default: The default is to not notify clamd. See clamd.conf(5)'s option SelfCheck for how clamd(8) handles database updates in this case.
OnUpdateExecute STRING
Execute this command after the database has been successfully updated.
Default: disabled
OnOutdatedExecute STRING
Execute this command when freshclam reports outdated version. In the command string %v will be replaced by the new version number.
Default: disabled
OnErrorExecute STRING
Execute this command after a database update has failed.
Default: disabled
ConnectTimeout NUMBER
Timeout in seconds when connecting to database server.
Default: 10
ReceiveTimeout NUMBER
Timeout in seconds when reading from database server.
Default: 30
SubmitDetectionStats STRING
When enabled freshclam will submit statistics to the ClamAV Project about the latest virus detections in your environment. The ClamAV maintainers will then use this data to determine what types of malware are the most detected in the field and in what geographic area they are. This feature requires LogTime and LogFile to be enabled in clamd.conf. The path for clamd.conf file must be provided.
Default: disabled
DetectionStatsCountry STRING
Country of origin of malware/detection statistics (for statistical purposes only). The statistics collector at ClamAV.net will look up your IP address to determine the geographical origin of the malware reported by your installation. If this installation is mainly used to scan data which comes from a different location, please enable this option and enter a two-letter code (see http://www.iana.org/domains/root/db/) of the country of origin.
Default: disabled

The ClamAuth kernel extension enables ClamAV to provide on-access scanning for Mac OS X 10.5 and later.


The current version works in a passive mode only - ClamAV will log the detection but won't block access to the infected file. However, it's possible to perform special actions (eg. quarantine files) with the VirusEvent directive of clamd.
Usage
-----
1. Run ClamAuth_load to load the kernel extension (you can edit the script to change or add more paths that will be monitored).
2. Add 'ClamAuth yes' to your clamd.conf (ClamAV 0.97.4) or 'ScanOnAccess yes' (ClamAV-devel)
3. Start clamd with root privileges ('sudo /usr/local/sbin/clamd')
If clamd properly connects to the driver, you should see a line like this in the log file:

ClamAuth: Driver version: 0.3, protocol version: 2
Clamav Mac Clamd
ClamAV is now monitoring the paths specified in ClamAuth_load.
