OK, I've seen the rate limiting post, and that's understandable.
We're running an (old) version of Freshclam every hour, and that's just
started failing with '403 Forbidden' errors. I guess we'll need to
update to a more recent version, which is OK, but not trivial in our
case so may take us a few days to implement properly. (It needs doing,
so I'm not too bothered by having to do it, but it'd be nice to have a
workaround until that can be done).
So, I thought we'd run a private mirror using the instructions here:
https://www.clamav.net/documents/private-local-mirrors as then we
wouldn't have any issues with rate limiting, and would help by reducing
the load on your servers, etc.
Unfortunately, those don't work any more, because "wget
http://database.clamav.net/main.cvd" also fails with a 403 Forbidden
error. I've tried from multiple PCs on multiple networks, and it always
fails.
(Note that we're not getting a 429, so we're not being rate limited,
just blocked totally)
So, your request in your rate limiting post of "2. Consider setting up a
local mirror on your network" is seemingly impossible to do.
Is there any new trick to setting up a local mirror?
(PS - also, on my PC, 'wget' fails, but Chrome can download the updates
absolutely fine, so it's not blocking my IP address, just the use of wget)
