Clam - how to scan system partition via CLI?

KlausR · 7. April 2019

Being quite a newbie with linux and couldn't find any command by google search that matches.

I check in via putty, choose root directory as starting point and...? OMV won't find "clamscan" to check system partition (usb disks / shared folders are done by job created via GUI).

Thank you in advance!

Maybe you need to specify the complete path to clamscan. Try which clamscan to get the path.

Hey macom, thank you. No answer by "which clamscan".

Using Antivirus-Plugin from OMV-Extras.org ("openmediavault-clamav 4.1.9") there seems to be no Clamav directory at all, neither clamscan.

Maybe i need to install a different version?

I do not use the plugin, but this might be helpful

Just installed it in a VM
which clamdscan gives
/usr/bin/clamdscan

Otherwise let's see if somebody else knows for sure.

Jetzt mitmachen!
