Updater
Keeps
Backups
The Internet Updater replaces installed files with newer versions when updates are
available. Even if the program is testing the new files, you might want to keep backups of
earlier versions.
When activating this option, your existing files will be moved to the newly created
subdirectories of
/usr/lib/AntiVir , named updater-backup-YYYYmmdd-HHMMSS .

GnuPG... GnuPG settings:
The Updater can check the updates for authenticity using GnuPG. For more information,
see
Verifying Updates Authenticity with GnuPG – Page 26. If you use GnuPG, you have to
enter the path to GnuPG executable, for example:
GnuPGBinary /usr/local/bin/gpg
You can also add other options using
GnuPGOptions
, depending on the specific GnuPG
installation. This is usually not necessary. Both settings are deactivated by default.
Syslog... Syslog settings:
AntiVir sends messages for all important operations to the
syslog daemon. You may
specify the facility and priority for these messages. The default setting is:
SyslogFacility user
SyslogPriority notice
These values apply even if the option is not active.
4.3 Configuration Script configantivir
You can conveniently configure AntiVir Internet Updater using the configuration script
configantivir , which is able to intercept possible invalid entries and restart the necessary
processes.
The script for configuring AntiVir Updater edits the parameters in avupdater.conf .
The procedure for using the script is very easy:
Type:
/usr/lib/AntiVir/configantivir
The script reads the current settings in avupdater.conf and systematically asks if you want
to enter new values. It displays all possible parameter values, while the current ones are
shown as default.
If you activate the backup function of the Internet Updater, you
should check this directory regularly and manually delete old versions
as the size increases.
