ClamFS Description

A FUSE-based user-space file system for Linux with on-access anti-virus file scanning ClamFS is a FUSE-based user-space file system for Linux with on-access anti-virus file scanning through clamd daemon.Compilation:If you downloaded source package unpack it (if you have got sources form CVS omit this step):$ tar zxf clamfs-< version >.tar.gz Go to directory created by tar:$ cd clamfs-< version > # or clamfs for CVS sourcesIf you have Debian GNU/Linux build package:$ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakerootIf not, use standard installation method:$ ./configure$ make# make installConfigurationCopy file doc/clamfs.xml to /etc/clamfs/< some_name >.xml. Than edit to fit your needs.Ready... STEADY... GO!Start file system daemon with:# clamfs /etc/clamfs/< some_name >.xml Here are some key features of "ClamFS": · User-space file system (no kernel patches, recompilation, etc.) · Configuration stored in XML files · FUSE (and libfuse) used as file system back-end · Scan files using ClamAV · ScanCache (LRU with time-based and out-of-memory expiration) speeds up file access · Sends mail to administrator when detect virus Requirements: · Clam AntiVirus · Filesystem in Userspace · GNU Common C++ · POCO C++ Libraries · RLog · dmalloc What's New in This Release: · A new "check" option was added to allow you to mount a ClamFS file system when clamd is not available, such as during an early stage of the boot process. · The "readonly" option was added to the filesystem options allowing you to create a read-only protected file system. · Negative scan cache was implemented to cache information about infected files and avoid re-scanning until file change. · Finally, ClamFS has filesystem statistics that allow you to monitor and tune its performance.
