Install ClamAV antivirus software CentOS 6
For CentOS 6 32-bit execute command:
rpm -Uvh http://mirror.overthewire.com.au/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
For CentOS 6 64-bit execute command:
rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
Install required packages:
Start the clamd service and set it to auto-start
/etc/init.d/clamd on
chkconfig clamd on
/etc/init.d/clamd start
Update ClamAV’s signatures:
Note: ClamAV will update automatically, as part of /etc/cron.daily/freshclam.
In this example, we will configure a cronjob to scan the /var/www directory every day. Create cron file:
nano /etc/cron.daily/man_clamscan
Add the following to the file above. Be sure to change SCAN_DIR to the directory that you want to scan:
#!/bin/bash
SCAN_DIR=”/var/www”
LOG_FILE=”/var/log/clamav/man_clamscan.log”
/usr/bin/clamscan -i -r $SCAN_DIR >> $LOG_FILE
Give our cron script executable permissions:
chmod +x /etc/cron.daily/man_clamscan
