56 Kaspersky Anti-Virus® for Sendmail with Milter API
If you connect to the Internet using a proxy server, do not forget to
specify its IP address as the value of the ProxyAddress parameter in
the [updater.options] section of the kavmilter.conf configuration file.
If you want to use a local folder as an update source, set the
UseUpdateServerUrl parameter to yes, UseUpdateServerUrlOnly to yes and
specify the full path to the update storage folder (UpdateServerUrl parameter).
Before updating, the application always creates a back up copy of the database
and kernel modules so that you can easily roll back to them if updating fails. The
backup storage is defined by the BackUpPath parameter. Thus, you can always
roll back to the previous version of the anti-virus database and restore earlier
program modules.
If you want to configure general parameters, such as the user name under which
updating starts, or perform it manually, use the keepup2date.sh script and the
following command line options:
–install – create the cron task for the utility under the default user account;
–prompt-install – in interactive mode create the cron task for launching the
updater;
–uninstall – delete the cron task for the utility under the default user
account;
–run – start updating the anti-virus database and the kernel. If updating fails,
the application will roll back to the previous anti-virus database and
modules that were active before updating;
–stop (or –end) – stop all running updater instances.
–rollback – force an anti-virus database rollback to the latest successful
update version.
The –rollback key can be used when the application works
incorrectly with the updated databases and it is necessary to
get back to an older version.
–user – specify another user account, differing from the default one, under
which the utility will run on the server.
