hi followed up http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-in...to-proftpd-for-virus-scanning-on-debian-lenny regardless what i do/did, the module mod_clamav.c does not load. I even build my own proftpd-mod-clamav debian package on my sever against proftpd-dev version 1.3.4d so zipp for the moment my proftpd.conf looks like: <IfModule mod_clamav.c> ClamAV on ClamServer 127.0.0.1 ClamPort 3310 </IfModule>
the workaround is to add at /etc/proftpd/modules.conf somewehere at the end of the file, but before the last line: # Load Module Clamav LoadModule mod_clamav.c save the file, and restart proftpd in order to check if module clamav has been loaded: hit proftpd -vv in a terminal and press enter download eicar virus from http://www.rexswain.com/eicar.html and upload it to the server that should fail, with the message: STOR eicar.com 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for eicar.com 550-Virus Detected and Removed: Eicar-Test-Signature FOUND 550 eicar.com: Action not allowed Error: Filetransfer Failed virtually no howto is reporting this workaround.
