[clamav-users] How to determine virus database version from behind proxy?

Hi,

in my current working environment I do not have direct internet access, 
nor is it possible to query public DNS servers.
Running a command like "host -t txt current.cvd.clamav.net" yields no 
result.
The only way out is a proxy.
I still would like to figure out whether or not my local database is up 
to date.
Can I retrieve the information contained in the DNS TXT record via a 
http(s) source as well? If so, how?

Thanks a lot in advance.

  André
