[clamav-users] db.se.clamav.net not working properly

Al,

Thanks for the quick reply!

I did delete mirrors.dat and daily.cld and re-started freshclam with 
setting database.clamav.net in /etc/freshclam.conf, with the same 
result: "not found"
The whole mirror system doesn't seem to work, as it is not checking 
any other server than db.se.clamav.net, which is the "local" in my 
case.
Luckily, using db.uk.calmav.net does work, so I keep it this way and 
will check regularly if database.clamav.net is working again.
Thanks!
