maybe i don't fully understand how this vpn works
i understood that this would be the ip address for anyone using this exit point
i have two machines
one is my work machine and has clamav
the other runs a cnc mill that hasn't been on for several days
i can send my whole freshclam log if it helps
maybe something needs to be changed in my config

this is /etc/clamav/freshclam.conf
