Linode is our second biggest abuser.
Slow your updater down.

hi,
Hi,
Clam AV has put it's database behind Cloudflare... as a result the updates no longer work because Cloudflare is blocking Linode.com machines... the updates are getting a 429 error saying that we are "rate limited"... if this continues it will make Clam AV useless because eventually the database will be so out of date that new viruses will get through...
Um ...
My Linode seems to still be getting updates.
I'm not seeing any errors in the freshclam log file.
Note: I don't know if it makes any difference or not, but I am using my own DNS server and not Linode's.
There should be some way for Clam AV to tell Cloudflare to unhide the AV database and fix the 429 errors....
thanks,
I'd like to learn more about the format of the current.cvd.clamav.net TXT record. The numbers in the end of my freshclam log file match some of the numbers in the TXT record. But I can't quite grock the pattern to know for sure.
# host -t txt current.cvd.clamav.net; perl -e 'printf "%d\n", time;'
current.cvd.clamav.net descriptive text "0.103.1:59:26113:1616196540:0:63:49191:333"
