ClamAV virus detecting.

I have just scanned my Windows [over Samba] machine with ClamAV. It shows up with 1 virus detected, and im just wondering if it gets rid of it automatically, or do you need to set special commands for it?

Here is the output of it:

clamav only scan for viruses, a repair function is not implemented so you must clean the infected file with ie. f-prot

f-prot works well with amavis too, as does clamav.

I was just wondering if you got ClamAV to work with SAMBA?? As in, will
it scan your shared folders when someone adds a file?

I'm stuck here because when I add the "vfs" lines in my smb.conf,
testparm won't recognise it :/

If you do, I hope you don't mind but could you tell me what version of
SAMBA you are running as well as paste the lines related to clamav from
your smb.conf?

Thanks in advance,
~Kristy

Yes you can scan files on shares. I do this all the time with my Windows share.
