Re: clamav preprocessor unknown?

Tristan,

Try the following, 
make clean
autoreconf -f
./configure --enable-clamav

when you run make you should see a -DCLAMAV flag passed to the
compiler.  Everything else looks good.

Regards,

Will

Hi there,

I just installed snort-inline on a Debian Sarge machine from source
(2.2.0) and it seemed to be ok. I also used the
./configure --enable-clamav
option, since I have clamav installed (but clamd is not running, I do
the clamscan calls manually). There was also no problem with
configure/make and running snort_inline.

But when I try to activate the clamav-preprocessor in snort_inline.conf:

       preprocessor clamav: ports all !22 !443, action-drop

I cannot run snort_inline anymore because of this error:

       ERROR:  unknown preprocessor "xav"
       Fatal Error, Quitting..

It is also really strange, that the preprocessor is named "xav" here,
although it is "clamav" in the .conf - but it works when I remove the
clamav line from .conf, so this surely means "clamav".

Is the preprocessor not included in the snort-inline-2.2.0 source and I
have to add it myself? But the README.clamav and the example lines in
the .conf file were also included, so I think the preprocessor should be
there.

Or does it depend on the clamd daemon running?

Thanks for your help!

Tristan
