 1. BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
b151ef55
 
 A makefile was supplied with this which should have built the program. If it
 fails please let us know, and here are some hints for building on different
cc0cd0b8
 platforms. You will need to set --enable-milter when running configure for
 the automatic build to work.
b151ef55
 
 Tested OK on Linux/x86 with gcc3.2.
 	cc -O3 -pedantic -Wuninitialized -Wall -pipe -mcpu=pentium -march=pentium -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -finline-functions -funroll-loops clamav-milter.c -pthread -lmilter ../libclamav/.libs/libclamav.a ../clamd/cfgfile.o ../clamd/others.o
 
 Compiles OK on Linux/x86 with tcc 0.9.16, but fails to link errors with 'atexit'
 	tcc -g -b -lmilter -lpthread clamav-milter.c...
 
 Fails to compile on Linux/x86 with icc6.0 (complains about stdio.h...)
 	icc -O3 -tpp7 -xiMKW -ipo -parallel -i_dynamic -w2 clamav-milter.c...
 Fails to build on Linux/x86 with icc7.1 with -ipo (fails on libclamav.a - keeps saying run ranlib). Otherwise it builds and runs OK.
 	icc -O2 -tpp7 -xiMKW -parallel -i_dynamic -w2 -march=pentium4 -mcpu=pentium4 clamav-milter.c...
 
3e58026b
 Tested with Electric Fence 2.2.2, and the bounds checking C compiler from
2c37c4f0
 	http://sourceforge.net/projects/boundschecking/
b151ef55
 
 Compiles OK on Linux/ppc (YDL2.3) with gcc2.95.4. Needs -lsmutil to link.
 	cc -O3 -pedantic -Wuninitialized -Wall -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -finline-functions -funroll-loop -pthread -lmilter ../libclamav/.libs/libclamav.a ../clamd/cfgfile.o ../clamd/others.o -lsmutil
c6259ac5
 I haven't tested it further on this platform yet.
 YDL3.0 should compile out of the box
b151ef55
 
f0e344aa
 Linux/sparc (Gentoo 2004.2) comes with a sendmail that doesn't support MILTER,
 so *before* running "configure --enable-milter", download from
 http://www.sendmail.org/ftp, then:
 	cd .../sendmail-source-directory
 	sh Build
 	make install
 	cd libmilter
 	make install
 
b151ef55
 Sendmail on MacOS/X (10.1) is provided without a development package so this
 can't be run "out of the box"
 
c6259ac5
 Solaris 8 doesn't have milter support so clamav-milter won't work unless you
 rebuild sendmail from source.
b151ef55
 
 FreeBSD4.7 use /usr/local/bin/gcc30. GCC3.0 is an optional extra on
 FreeBSD. It comes with getopt.h which is handy. To link you need
 -lgnugetopt
 	gcc30 -O3 -DCONFDIR=\"/usr/local/etc\" -I. -I.. -I../clamd -I../libclamav -pedantic -Wuninitialized -Wall -pipe -mcpu=pentium -march=pentium -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -finline-functions -funroll-loops clamav-milter.c -pthread -lmilter ../libclamav/.libs/libclamav.a ../clamd/cfgfile.o ../clamd/others.o -lgnugetopt
 
e2bb746e
 FreeBSD4.8: compiles out of the box with either gcc2.95 or gcc3
cdbe607d
 
3307ede0
 NetBSD2.0: compiles out of the box
 
cdbe607d
 OpenBSD3.4: the supplied sendmail does not come with Milter support.
 Do this *before* running configure (thanks for Per-Olov Sjöhol
 <peo_s@incedo.org> for these instructions).
 
 	echo WANT_LIBMILTER=1 > /etc/mk.conf
 	cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail
 	make depend
 	make
 	make install
 	kill -HUP `sed q /var/run/sendmail.pid`
 
 Then do this to make the milter headers available to clamav...
 (the libmilter.a file is already in the right place after the sendmail
 recompiles above)
 
 	cd /usr/include
 	ln -s ../src/gnu/usr.sbin/sendmail/include/libmilter libmilter
c6259ac5
 
e2bb746e
 Solaris 9 and FreeBSD5 have milter support in the supplied sendmail, but
 doesn't include libmilter so you can't develop milter applications on it.
2c4bea4d
 Go to sendmail.org, download the latest sendmail, cd to libmilter and
e2bb746e
 "make install" there.
 
 Needs -lresolv on Solaris

 If, when building clamav-milter, you see the error
 	"undefined reference to smfi_opensocket",
 it means that your sendmail installation is broken. More specifically it means
 that your installed version of libmilter does not agree with your installed
 version of Sendmail. Naturally they must be the same. Check to see if you have
 more than one mfapi.h on your system; if you installed sendmail from source,
 did you remember to install libmilter at the same time? You can ensure that
 your Sendmail is correctly installed if you follow these instructions:
 	cd .../sendmail-source-directory
 	sh Build
 	make install
 	cd libmilter
 	make install

 2. INSTALLATION
b151ef55
 
f02c3c82
 Install into /usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter.
b151ef55
 
18f9be43
 Ensure that your sendmail supports milters by running
 	/usr/lib/sendmail -d0 < /dev/null | fgrep MILTER
 or
 	/usr/sbin/sendmail -d0 < /dev/null | fgrep MILTER
 
 You should see something like:
 	MATCHGECOS MILTER MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7 NAMED_BIND NETINET NETINET6
 It doesn't matter exactly what you see, as long as the word MILTER is printed.
 
 If you see no output you MUST upgrade your sendmail.
 
b151ef55
 See http://www.nmt.edu/~wcolburn/sendmail-8.12.5/libmilter/docs/sample.html
 
b6908e24
 2.1 LINUX (RedHat, Fedora, YellowDog etc)
 
b151ef55
 Installations for RedHat Linux and it's derivatives such as YellowDog:
4ba69cb6
 	Ensure that you have the sendmail-devel RPM installed
ad5eb067
 	Add to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc before the MAILER statement:
a5dd14da
 	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m;C:30s;E:10m')dnl
b151ef55
 	define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clamav')
 
b6908e24
 	Note that the INPUT_MAIL_FILTER line must come before the
e6969a0e
 		confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS line.
 
 	Don't worry that the file /var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock doesn't exist,
 		clamav-milter will create it for you. However you will need
 		to create the directory /var/run/clamav (usually owned
 		by user clamav, mode 700).
b6908e24
 
c857005e
 	Check entry in /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf of the form:
6e945c41
 	LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock
b151ef55
 
 	If you already have a filter (such as spamassassin-milter from
 	http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/spamass-milt) add it thus:
6e945c41
 	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
b151ef55
 	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=local:/var/run/spamass.sock, F=, T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')
 	define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `spamassassin,clamav')dnl
 
f02c3c82
 	mkdir /var/run/clamav
c857005e
 	chown clamav /var/run/clamav	(if you use User clamav in clamd.conf)
f02c3c82
 	chmod 700 /var/run/clamav
 
384e5f09
 	Where /var/run/spamass.sock is the location of the spamass-milt
 	socket file (on some systems it is in /var/run/sendmail/spamass.sock).
 
b6908e24
 2.2 LINUX (Debian)
 
902d1763
 Installations for Debian Linux:
 	As above for RedHat, except that you need the libmilter-dev package:
 		apt-get install libmilter-dev
b6908e24
 	To use TCPwrappers you need to:
 		apt-get install libwrap0-dev
 
 2.3 FreeBSD
902d1763
 
aac1847e
 Installations for FreeBSD5 (may be true for other BSDs)
 	Add to /etc/mail/freebsd.mc:
 	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
 	define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clamav')
 
 	Check entry in /usr/local/etc/clamd.conf of the form:
 	LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock
 
 	If you already have a filter (such as spamassassin-milter from
 	http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/spamass-milt) add it thus:
 	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
 	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=local:/var/run/spamass.sock, F=, T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')
 	define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `spamassassin,clamav')dnl
 
 	mkdir /var/run/clamav
 	chown clamav /var/run/clamav	(if you use User clamav in clamd.conf)
 	chmod 700 /var/run/clamav
 
 	Where /var/run/spamass.sock is the location of the spamass-milt
 	socket file (on some systems it is in /var/run/sendmail/spamass.sock).
 
dcf47f10
 FreeBSD5.3 sendmail comes without libmilter support. You can upgrade by
 	cd /usr/ports/mail/sendmail
 	make install
b6908e24
 
 This may overwrite your existing sendmail configuration, so ensure
 that you back up first.
dcf47f10
 
aac1847e
 You should have received a script to install into /etc/rc.d as /etc/rc.d/clamav
 with this software. Add to /etc/rc.conf:
 	clamd_enable="YES"
 	clamav_milter_enable="YES"
 	clamav_milter_flags="--max-children=2 --dont-wait --timeout=0 -P local:/var/run/clamav/clamav.sock --pidfile=/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter.pid --quarantine-dir=/var/run/clamav/quarantine"
 
b6908e24
 2.4 Solaris 10
 
 Solaris 10 should install out of the box. Edit /etc/mail/cf/cf/main.mc adding
 the line:
9bb5b9a4
 	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
b6908e24
 Then:
 	cp /etc/mail/cf/cf/main.cf /etc/mail/main.cf
9bb5b9a4
 	/usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter local:/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter
b6908e24
 	mkdir /var/run/clamav
 	chown clamav /var/run/clamav	(if you use User clamav in clamd.conf)
 	chmod 700 /var/run/clamav
 
 You should have received a script to install into /etc/init.d as
 /etc/init.d/clamav-milter. Then:
4c689fea
 
b6908e24
 	chmod 755 /etc/init.d/clamav-milter
bb8ccbbf
 	cd /etc
 	ln init.d/clamav-milter rc2.d/S90clamav-milter
 	ln init.d/clamav-milter rc0.d/K90clamav-milter
b6908e24
 	/etc/init.d/clamav-milter start
 	/etc/init.d/sendmail restart

 2.6 General Installation Issues
b6908e24
 
b151ef55
 You may find INPUT_MAIL_FILTERS is not needed on your machine, however it
 is recommended by the Sendmail documentation and I recommend going along
 with that.
 
c51c112c
 If you see an unsafe socket error from sendmail, it means that the permissions
 of the /var/run/clamav directory are too open. Check you have correctly run
679ff9e7
 chown and chmod, it may also mean that clamav-milter hasn't started, run
 ps and check your logs.
c51c112c
 
f77320c2
 The above example shows clamav-milter, clamd and sendmail all on the
 same machine, however using TCP they may reside on different machines,
 indeed clamav-milter is capable of talking to multiple clamds for redundancy
 and load balancing.
 
b151ef55
 I suggest putting SpamAssassin first since you're more likely to get spam
 than a virus/worm sent to you.
 
 Add to /etc/sysconfig/clamav-milter
d7e0b4e6
 	CLAMAV_FLAGS="local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock"
b151ef55
 or if clamd is on a different machine
d7e0b4e6
 	CLAMAV_FLAGS="--server=192.168.1.9 local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock"
b151ef55
 
f77320c2
 If you want clamav-milter to listen on TCP for communication with sendmail,
 for example if they are on different machines use inet:<port>.
 On machine A (running sendmail) you would have in sendmail.mc:
2c4bea4d
 	INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=inet:3311@machineb, F=T, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
f77320c2
 On machine B (running clamav-milter) you would start up clamav-milter thus:
fa7e490e
 	clamav-milter inet:3311
f77320c2
 
b151ef55
 You should have received a script to put into /etc/init.d with this software.
 
6e945c41
 You should always start clamd before clamav-milter.
 
3de1e2a8
 You may also think about the F= entry in sendmail.mc, since it tells sendmail
 what to do with emails if clamav-milter is not running. Setting F=T will tell
 the remote end to resend later (temporary failure), setting F=R will reject
2c4bea4d
 the email (permanent failure) and setting F= will pass the email through as
 though clamav-milter were not installed, in this case you should warn your
 users that emails are not being scanned. We recommend setting F=T.
 
 You may wish to experiment with the T= entry which governs timeout options. You
 MUST set some type of timeout or a malicious client could cause a Denial of
 Service attack by keeping your clamav-milter threads alive. The types of
 timeout are C (time for clamav-milter to acknowledge to sendmail that it
 has accepted a new connection), S (timeout for sending information from sendmail
 to clamav-milter), R (timeout for sendmail reading a reply from clamav-milter
 when it has been sent some information) and E (timeout for clamav-milter to
 handle the end-of-message request, this needs to be high enough to scan the
 largest file that you will receive since it is at this stage that the file is
 scanned, but short enough to ensure that a DoS can't occur when lots of scans
 are requested). The important entries for clamav-milter are C and E (both
 default to 5 minutes).
3de1e2a8
 
4664ebae
 WARNING: When running on internal mode (--external is NOT used), clamav-milter
 will need to wait for all connections to stop before it can reload the database
 after running freshclam. It is therefore important that NO timeouts in
 sendmail.cf are set too high or worse still turned off, otherwise clamav-milter
 can wait a long time, perhaps indefinately, while waiting for the system to
9b88d5de
 quieten down. The same goes for disabling StreamMaxLength, since receiving a
 very large email to be scanned may take a long time. We advise setting
 StreamMaxLength to 1M.
4664ebae
 
ad5eb067
 Don't forget to rebuild sendmail.cf after modifying sendmail.mc. You will
 need to restart sendmail after rebuilding sendmail.cf and starting clamd and
 clamav-milter.
3de1e2a8
 
062dddc9
 As with all software it is wise to ensure that clamav-milter has the least
6e945c41
 privileges it needs to run. So don't run it as root and don't store the sockets
062dddc9
 in a directory that can be written by everyone. For example ensure that /var/run
2c4bea4d
 is owned and writeable only by root and add entries for 'User' and
c857005e
 'FixStaleSocket' in clamd.conf.
bb9979e6
 
c857005e
 When using UNIX domain sockets via the LocalSocket option of clamd.conf,
97727aa0
 we recommend that you use the --quarantine-dir option since that may improve
 performance.
 
9f47e7ab
 If you wish to send a warning when a message is blocked, clamav-milter MUST be
 able to call sendmail, for example on a Fedora Linux system:
 
 	# ls -lL /usr/lib/sendmail
 	-rwxr-sr-x  1 root smmsp 732356 Sep  1 11:16 /usr/lib/sendmail
 
6d113e37

 http://www.testvirus.org
 
523a25b0
 If, under heavy strain on Linux, you see the message
 	thread_create() failed: 12, abort
 appearing in a log file, you will need to increase the number of threads on
 your system (/proc/sys/kernel/threads-max), or decrease the value of
 --max-children.
 
9bb5b9a4
 2.7 Postfix
 
d5f7fec8
 Clamav-milter has only been designed to work with Sendmail. I understand that
 modern versions of Postfix have milter support, and I've heard that
 Clamav-milter runs with these versions of Postfix, however it is not supported
 with that software and I do not know how much functionality works.
9bb5b9a4
 
d5f7fec8
 To start clamav-milter:
9bb5b9a4
 
 	# clamav-milter --sendmail-cf= --max-children=2 \
 		--timeout=0 --pidfile=/var/run/clamav/clamav-milter \
 		local:/var/spool/postfix/clamav/clamav-milter
 	# chown clamav:postfix /var/spool/postfix/clamav/clamav-milter
 	# chmod g+w /var/spool/postfix/clamav/clmilter
 
 In /etc/postfix/main.cf set:
 	smtpd_milters = unix:clamav/clamav-milter
 	non_smtpd_milters = unix:clamav/clamav-milter

 5.1. Patches
 
 Patches are welcome, but they must be against the latest CVS version and adhere
f1606523
 to the coding style of clamav-milter. Coding style is religious, everyone
4c689fea
 believes theirs is great and all others are rubbish.
f1606523
 
 This is my coding style, live with it. You don't want me in a bad mood because
 I can't read your code when I'm deciding if your code should be incorporated.
 
 Most of this style is based on K&R.
d607ca4b
 
 Use the tab key, not space key, to indent.
 
 Except for functions, braces always go on the same line as the condition.
 
2762a64b
 Don't leave to chance, or your knowledge of precedence, use brackets to
 highten the readability.
d607ca4b
 
 Choose variable names sensibly, don't use Hungarian style.
 
 The code is ANSI C, not C++, remember that when thinking of comment formats,
 location of declarations, etc.
 
 Patches which use 'goto' will never, ever, be accepted.
 
 Use the design of your code as comments.
 
 Test your patches and document the tests when submitting, e.g. different
 hardware, operating systems, test tools such as valgrind, compilers (gcc, icc,
 Sun's cc).
 
 Function names appear at the start of lines (I use ctags).
 
f1606523
 Document your changes. If you add, remove, or change functionality you will
 need to update the manual page and possibly the usage message as well.
 
b6908e24
 6. TODO
b151ef55
 
 There are several ideas marked as TODO in the source code. If anyone has
 any other suggestions please feel free to contact me.
