     The <code>DatabaseMirror</code> directive in the config file specifies the
     database server <code>freshclam</code> will attempt (up to <code>MaxAttempts</code>
     times) to download the database from. The default database mirror
     is <TT><A NAME="tex2html31"
89e1684e
   HREF="database.clamav.net">database.clamav.net</A></TT> but multiple directives are allowed.
8997c071
     In order to download the database from the closest mirror you should  
     configure <code>freshclam</code> to use <TT><A NAME="tex2html32"
   HREF="db.xx.clamav.net">db.xx.clamav.net</A></TT> where xx
     represents your country code. For example, if your server is in "Ascension
     Island" you should add the following lines to <code>freshclam.conf</code>:
c7217226
     <PRE>
89e1684e
 	DNSDatabaseInfo current.cvd.clamav.net
8997c071
 	DatabaseMirror db.ac.clamav.net
89e1684e
 	DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net
c7217226
 </PRE>

     The second entry acts as a fallback in case a connection to the first
     mirror fails for some reason. The full list of two-letters country codes
     is available at <TT><A NAME="tex2html33"
