Hi all,

I want to setup an antivirus (clamav) on gateway ( a router with squid installed). my LAN connects to internet using squid on this gateway. I want every outgoing and incoming packet to be scanned by clam to reduce the risk of my LAN get infected by viruses.

I have tried safesquid but it has problems like it quit unexpectedly after a few minutes. I have also tried the combination of squid and pyclamav but I can't compile pyclamav for it produced errors. Is there anyway we can integrate clam and squid or is there any other products (preferably free and GPL) which do the same thing?

please advice.

you might want to try havp http://www.server-side.de/
(if you use that server for only a HTTP proxy/gateway you might want to try a distro with builting support for this, like EndianFireWall, http://www.endian.it/)

Thanks. I have squid installed and am going to try for this configuration : squid as the parent proxy for HAVP. I'll post here what I can do about it. stay tune.

I opted to dansguardian coupled with squid. dansguardian supports content filtering + antivirus. So far it's good. If u want to download it, please choose the latest beta. It supports better virus scanning.
