The easiest way to get the ClamAV package is using Homebrew |
$ brew install clamav |
Before trying to start the clamd process, you'll need a copy of the ClamAV databases. |
$ cp /usr/local/etc/clamav/freshclam.conf.sample /usr/local/etc/clamav/freshclam.conf |
comment out line 8 'Example' in freshclam.conf and make sure the following line is there around line 79: 'DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net' |
$ cp /usr/local/etc/clamav/clamd.conf.sample /usr/local/etc/clamav/clamd.conf |
comment out line 8 'Example' and uncomment line 85 'LocalSocket /tmp/clamd.socket' |
Then run |
$ /usr/local/Cellar/clamav/0.99.2_1/bin/freshclam -v |
