Thank you for replying Steve
I have the "fetch-sanesecurity-sigs" script running via CRON job.
It's getting it's signatures from:
mirror="rsync://rsync.sanesecurity.net/sanesecurity"
Looks like this is the function that tests the ndb file:
# Test the database by asking ClamAV to check something with it
### if ! clamscan --quiet --database="$db" < /dev/null
if ! /usr/local/bin/clamscan --quiet --database="$db"
then
echo "ERROR: $db_name fails a simple test; discarding" >&2
continue
fi

Hi Mike,
Which script are you using?
