1. BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
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
platforms. You will need to set --enable-milter when running configure for
the automatic build to work.
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...
Tested with Electric Fence 2.2.2, and the bounds checking C compiler from
http://web.inter.nl.net/hcc/Haj.Ten.Brugge/
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
I haven't tested it further on this platform yet.
YDL3.0 should compile out of the box
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
Sendmail on MacOS/X (10.1) is provided without a development package so this
can't be run "out of the box"
Solaris 8 doesn't have milter support so clamav-milter won't work unless you
rebuild sendmail from source.
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
FreeBSD4.8: compiles out of the box with either gcc2.95 or gcc3
NetBSD2.0: compiles out of the box
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
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.
Go to sendmail.org, download the lastest sendmail, cd to libmilter and
"make install" there.
Needs -lresolv on Solaris
2. INSTALLATION
Install into /usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter.
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.
See http://www.nmt.edu/~wcolburn/sendmail-8.12.5/libmilter/docs/sample.html
2.1 LINUX (RedHat, Fedora, YellowDog etc)
Installations for RedHat Linux and it's derivatives such as YellowDog:
Ensure that you have the sendmail-devel RPM installed
Add to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc before the MAILER statement:
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clamav')
Note that the INPUT_MAIL_FILTER line must come before the
confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS line
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).
2.2 LINUX (Debian)
Installations for Debian Linux:
As above for RedHat, except that you need the libmilter-dev package:
apt-get install libmilter-dev
To use TCPwrappers you need to:
apt-get install libwrap0-dev
2.3 FreeBSD
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).
FreeBSD5.3 sendmail comes without libmilter support. You can upgrade by
cd /usr/ports/mail/sendmail
make install
This may overwrite your existing sendmail configuration, so ensure
that you back up first.
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"
2.4 Solaris 10
Solaris 10 should install out of the box. Edit /etc/mail/cf/cf/main.mc adding
the line:
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
Then:
cp /etc/mail/cf/cf/main.cf /etc/mail/main.cf
/usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock
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:
chmod 755 /etc/init.d/clamav-milter
cd /etc
ln init.d/clamav-milter rc2.d/S90clamav-milter
ln init.d/clamav-milter rc0.d/K90clamav-milter
/etc/init.d/clamav-milter start
/etc/init.d/sendmail restart
2.6 General Instalation Issues
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.
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
chown and chmod, it may also mean that clamav-milter hasn't started, run
ps and check your logs.
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.
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
CLAMAV_FLAGS="local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock"
or if clamd is on a different machine
CLAMAV_FLAGS="--server=192.168.1.9 local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock"
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:
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clamav', `S=inet:3311@machineb, F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
On machine B (running clamav-milter) you would start up clamav-milter thus:
clamav-milter inet:3311
You should have received a script to put into /etc/init.d with this software.
You should always start clamd before clamav-milter.
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
the email and setting F= will pass the email through, in this case you should
warn your users that emails are not being scanned.
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.
As with all software it is wise to ensure that clamav-milter has the least
privileges it needs to run. So don't run it as root and don't store the sockets
in a directory that can be written by everyone. For example ensure that /var/run
is owned and writable only by root and add entries for 'User' and
'FixStaleSocket' in clamd.conf.
When using UNIX domain sockets via the LocalSocket option of clamd.conf,
we recommend that you use the --quarantine-dir option since that may improve
performance.
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

0.67e 20/2/04 Moved the definition of the sendmail pipe
The recent changes to the configure script changed
the order of includes so some prototypes weren't getting in
0.67f 20/2/04 Added checkClamd() - if possible attempts to see if clamd has
died
0.67g 21/2/04 Don't run if the quarantine-dir is publically accessable
0.67h 22/2/04 Change the log level TCPwrapper denying
Handle ERROR message from clamd
Moved smfi_setconn to avoid race condictions when an e-mail is
received just as the milter is starting but isn't ready to
handle it causing the milter to go to an error state
Hardend umask
0.67i 27/2/04 Dropping priv message now same as clamd
Only use TCPwrappers when using TCP/IP to establish
communications with the milter
0.67j 27/2/04 Call checkClamd() before attempting to connect, it's
a way of warning the user if they've started the
milter before clamd
checkClamd() now stashes pid in syslog
Ensure installation instructions tally with man page
and put sockets into subdirectory for security
clamfi_close debug, change assert to debug message
Better way to force TCPwrappers only with TCP/IP
0.67k 7/3/04 Ensure cli_dbgmsg's end with \n
Fixed some warning messages with icc
Use cli_[cm]alloc
Included extra information if --headers is given (based on an

0.67l 10/3/04 Use new HAVE_STRERROR_R rather than TARGET_OS_SOLARIS to
determine if strerror_r exists
0.70 17/3/04 Up-issued to 0.70
0.70a 20/3/04 strerror_r is a bit confused on Fedora Linux. The
man page says it returns an int, but the prototype
in string.h says it returns a char *
Say how many bytes can't be written to clamd - it may give a
clue what's wrong
0.70b 26/3/04 Display errno information on write failure to clamd
Ensure errno is passed to strerror
Print fd in clamfi_send debug
0.70c 27/3/04 Timestamp clamfi_send messages
Call cli_warnmsg if ERROR received
Minor code tidy
Delay connection to clamd to handle clamd's appetite for timing
out when the remote end (the end talking to
sendmail) is slow
Prefer cli_dbgmsg/cli_warnmsg over printf
0.70d 29/3/04 Print the sendmail ID with the virus note in syslog
config file location has changed
0.70e 1/4/04 Fix a remote possibility of a file descriptor leak

Corrected some debug messages reported by
Sergey Y. Afonin <asy@kraft-s.ru>
0.70f 1/4/04 Added auto-submitted header to messages generated here
Suggested by "Andrey J. Melnikoff (TEMHOTA)"
<temnota@kmv.ru>
Add advice that --quarantine-dir may improve
performance when LocalSocket is used
ThreadTimeout seems to have been changed to ReadTimeout
0.70g 3/4/04 Error if ReadTimeout is -ve

0.70m 19/4/04 Started code to parse header to find the real infected machine
Added the --from flag
Return SMFIS_TEMPFAIL when out of memory idea by
Joe Maimon <jmaimon@ttec.com>
Some still to be done
Based on an idea by Christian Pelissier
<Christian.Pelissier@onera.fr>. Store different
day's quarantines in different directories to
make them easier to manage
0.70n 20/4/04 Allow for "i" macro not defined in sendmail.cf
clamfi_connect: print better message if hostaddr is null
0.70o 20/4/04 Added X-Virus-Status
Always add X-Virus-Scanned
If hostaddr is NULL assume it's a local connection. This
is probably a safe assumption but it should be verified
0.70p 20/4/04 If /dev/console fails to open, open /dev/null instead on fds 1
and 2
TCP_WRAPPERS code now uses inet_ntop()
Simplify virus string
Sort out tabs in the hard coded e-mail message
0.70q 22/4/04 No need to parse the received line if --headers is given
If -outgoing is given put generated emails in the deferred
queue to avoid the milter being called twice at the
same time (one on the incoming one on the outgoing)
header_list_print, ensure From lines are escaped, may not be
needed but it is better to be on the safe side
When loadbalancing, fail to start only if no servers can be
reached (used to fail if any one server could not be
reached)
Not all servers were load balanced
0.70r 23/4/04 Ensure only From lines are escaped
Also defer generated emails if --force-scan is given
Better subject for quarantine e-mails
0.70s 25/4/04 Added --pidfile support
0.70t 28/4/04 Better quarantine message error report when failing to create
the temporary file
Send 554 after DATA received, not 550
Don't send rejection notices to rejection notices, we just end
up playing ping-pong (patch by "Andrey J.Melnikoff
(TEMHOTA)" <temnota@kmv.ru>
If CL_DEBUG is defined, don't redirect stdout/stderr
Don't attempt to return an old signature if no filename has
been given. There has never been one to return
0.70u 29/4/04 When changing from realloc to cli_realloc I forgot to keep the
assignment of signature
0.70v 6/5/04 clamfi_close now always checks privdata is NULL, not only when
debugging
Allow transfers of exactly streamMaxLength
Warn if a clean file can't be removed from the quarantine
When streamMaxLength is exceeded add a header where possible,
unless --noxheader is given
0.70x 7/5/04 Only report that we've dropped privilege if the setuid
succeeded, fix by Jens Elkner
<elkner@linofee.org>
If logVerbose is set state both starting and started messages
(based on an idea by "Sergey Y. Afonin"
<asy@kraft-s.ru>
Also added X-Infected-Received-From: header by Sergey
Fix from Damian Menscher <menscher@uiuc.edu> ensures that when
a child dies we continue when max children is hit
Report an error if inet_ntop fails in tcp_wrappers
0.71 16/5/04 Up issue
0.71a 21/5/04 --from wasn't always a recognised option
Write failure to quarantine file now logs the name of the file
Commented out TKs advice about using quarantine when using
localSocket, sys admins were confused by it
0.71b 24/5/04 Add which host did the virus scanning
0.71c 25/5/04 X-Virus-Status: Not Scanned - StreamMaxLength exceeded was not
always being added
Now says host running clamd rather than host running
