Hi,
I've tested ART some months ago with my "old" server.
Now I've a new provider, and a new server.
But I think I've problem with ART in the past because I didn't follow a correct installation guide.
Is there any install doc for spamassassin and Clamd with ART ?
I only want to install these two packages with my plesk.
I think that opensource programs are better than propritary ones (like Dr web wich I should pay for, and I don't know what/how it does...).
If there is no install guide, I can maybe wrote one ... and be helped to do that by other people on this forum ...

You need to install qmail-scanner to use clamav with PSA. So run the following:
1) Set up the archive:
wget -q -O -
http://www.atomicorp.com/installers/atomic.sh |sh
2) Update spamassassin, and install Clamav, qmail-scanner, and SA support packages:
yum update spamassassin
yum install clamd qmail-scanner dcc pyzor razor-agents
3) Restart the services, and update the qmail-scanner config.
service spamassassin restart
service clamd start
qmail-scanner-reconfigure

Thanks.
I know that, I've tried it with my old server
But I think a lot of people here come to have a free antispam solution with plesk, and on "
www.atomicrocketturtle.com", no page "how to" for new user ...
Or I don't look on the right place
But scott is always here, thanks to you!

Yes, I don't know how Scott does it. He comes out with all this brilliant stuff, and always helps with problems when he can.
I've never met him in person but I would not be surprised if there was a halo hovering above his head

How Can I use only spamd for ClamAV and SpamAssassin? I dont want to use Spamd by Spamassassin.
Any special command?
Thanks a lot.

+1 : Good question, I don't know, I think Scott know the answer ...
I think we should remove psa-spamassassin and only install spamassassin from ART, maybe I'm wrong ?
5 minutes before I've read this post, I was on
http://www.atomicorp.com/wiki/index.php/Spamassassin . And I have some question : how can we get mysql and spamassassin working together ? Wich packet should we update or remove ? maybe wiki is wrong ?
Another question : in the past with my old server running plesk 8.0 (Fedora core 5 - I have now a "new" server with FC5 and plesk 8.1) I had in the past some trouble with clamd and user & group that clamd use (qscand.qscand) to write logs after an signature update of clamav.
Is there any problem with users/perms/FC5 and clamd today ? or any good wiki page ?

Another addition:
25773 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/bin/spamd -d -c -m5 -H -r /var/run/spamd.pid
25777 ? S 0:00 \_ spamd child
25778 ? S 0:00 \_ spamd child
27555 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/bin/spamd --username=popuser --daemonize --nouser-config --helper-home-dir=/var/qmail
27557 ? S 0:00 \_ spamd child
27558 ? S 0:00 \_ spamd child
There are 2 spamds running in that system
the first is the one coming from /etc/init.d/spamassassin
where is the other one from? psa-spamassassin?
