I attempting to use WHM/cpanel as an offering for our VPS servers. One of the key things we are looking for is anti-virus for incoming email.
I searched the forums and found out the clamav can be installed in the cpanel->manage plugins section, which I did.
I then went to plugins->configure ClamAV scanner, and enabled all the options, including "scan mail".
To test clamav, I uploaded a virus test file from "http://www.eicar.org/anti_virus_test_file.htm" and uploaded to a site on the server. When I scan this folder in the sites cpanel, under "Virus scanne", it fails to detect the file. I also sent the file in an email attachment, but when using "scan mail" it fails to detect the file again.
Is there a better way to test that its working? Or is more configuration needed?
Im using cPanel 11.24.5-S38506 - WHM 11.24.2 - X 3.9 on CENTOS 5.4
