Naiupdt, a Perl script to automaticly update your NAI VirusScan DAT files * What it is This script will check the version of the locally installed NAI DAT file. Then find the version on the NAI FTP site. If there is a newer version available, it will retrieve it and install it. A lot of checks are done to make very sure you will always have a working DAT file. The script has a $silent mode for use in CRON. In this mode the script will only produce output in case of failure or a succesful update. * Installation - Unpack the archive somewhere ( /usr/src for example) and copy the naiupdt.pl file to the NAI VS directory (default is /usr/local/uvscan) - Make sure you put the correct path to Perl in the first line of the script - Check that the location of the other required binaries is OK - Do a "chmod u+x naiupdt.pl" in the directory where the file is located - Do a test run, you can set $silent = 1 to suppress the output when run from CRON.
