This is an easy to configure bash script, for those who want to schedule definition updates, scanning, and e-mail a report upon any detection via the local MTA.
This is free software licensed under the GPLv3 and is based on the original script by Stefano Stagnaro.
You can find the original script here:
https://code.google.com/p/clamav-cron/
- Run a PHP-Antimalware-scan (PHP-Antimalware-Scanner).
- Send a brief report upon virus detection via e-mail (sendmail).
The configuration file for the scheduled task will contain scanning options for each path. You will need to customize this file to fit your server's layout.
PHP-Antimalware-Scanner (doesn't need to be installed system-wide, just put the correct path to the script in the config).
A mail server (sendmail) required for sending mail reports.
