ClamAV update interval where can you change it?
- Thread starter poetry
- Start date
that's configured in the freshclam config - the 'Checks' parameter defines how often per day a check is done - see `man freshclam.conf`
in PMG this happens through the templateing system:

If you change it - would be interesting if there's any benefit (i.e. if updates are more frequent than once/hour)
I hope this helps!
@Stoiko Ivanov thank you. If you are only using database.clamav.net once per hour seems reasonable but we are using https://www.securiteinfo.com/servic...e-of-zero-day-malwares-for-clamav.shtml?lg=en and they are updating their database at much higher rate. Almost every time I do manual update there is new signatures added so I wanted to change this. Will check with the securiteinfo owner if it's allowed to check once per 30min as their site says that they limit downloads to 24 per day but that might mean that they only count download in this limit and if you check more frequently and there is no updates you are not over the limit.
