Here's what's worked (so far) 1. follow Dag's link to install apt-get 2. apt-get update 3. apt-get install clamav 4. service clamd start 5. service clamav-milter start ...and now all the config files and freshclam seems to be as advertised so I can get on with testing and configuring. Thanks again Saurabh, Paul, and Alexander (and Dag!) bob
