[clamav-users] linux.cvd database question

[Jimmy F]

Hi, question re the linux.cvd database. Our company has a number of Linux
laptops running with 8 gigs of memory. We need AV for compliance reasons,
and would like to use ClamAV, but the 1.2G memory footprint is a bit much,
so we're looking at possibly using just the linux.cvd database which is
considerably smaller.

My question is how often is that linux.cvd updated and does it have latest
virus signatures? Using the sigtool it appears that it's updated from the
previous day. But I'm not clear on its relationship to the daily.cvd or
main databases. What percentage of daily.cvd are linux/unix based viruses?

Thanks!

Jimmy
