11 Uploaded files can be checked for viruses via the plug-in. For this purpose, this plugin is required as an activated system plugin and a running ClamAV-daemon service that can be accessed via TCP.
12
13 After this plugin has been installed, it must be configured. The configuration consists of specifying which {{smallcaps}}host:port{{/smallcaps}} combination is to be used. Furthermore, the transfer can be done with a {{smallcaps}}InputStream{{/smallcaps}} or working straight on the path.

18 If no connection can be established to the specified host, this message is displayed.

20
21 The following configuration parameters exist:
22
23 ; host (Required)
24 : Host name or IP address of the server running ClamAV-daemon. The standard port is {{smallcaps}}127.0.0.1{{/smallcaps}}, since ClamAV-daemon should be running on the same server as {{formcycle/}}.
25 ; port (Required)
26 : The default port of ClamAV-daemon is {{smallcaps}}3310{{/smallcaps}}. If the port is different, it must be specified here.
27 ; file-source
28 : By default, the element to be checked is transferred via Java's {{smallcaps}}InputStream{{/smallcaps}}. If the value {{smallcaps}}path{{/smallcaps}} is entered here, the path is used directly - whereby the ClamAV-daemon service must have root rights.
29
30 After saving, a ping test is automatically executed. If this fails, a corresponding message is displayed. In this case, all uploads in the backend or in the form are marked as faulty - the plugin should first be deactivated and a functioning connection established.

32 == ClamAV settings ==
33
34 The following section discusses important configuration steps of ClamAV-Daemon. Our recommended scenario is to install {{formcycle/}} and the ClamAV-Daemon service on the same server.
35
36 Since the actual virus scanning takes place separately from {{formcycle/}}, take care to keep the virus signature database up-to-date via {{smallcaps}}freshclam{{/smallcaps}}.
37
38 This plugin transmits the elements to be examined via TCP, which is deactivated by default in ClamAV-daemon. To enable it, the configuration file: {{smallcaps}}/etc/clamav/clamd.conf{{/smallcaps}} has to be edited.
39
40 The following parameters have to be added to the file:
41
42 ; TCPAddr (Required)
43 : Shall be added and specified with the value {{smallcaps}}127.0.0.1{{/smallcaps}}.
44 ; TCPSocket (Required)
45 : Shall be added and specified with the value {{smallcaps}}3310{{/smallcaps}} or different, if the port is occupied.
46 ; User
47 : By default this is {{smallcaps}}clamav{{/smallcaps}} and has to be changed to {{smallcaps}}root{{/smallcaps}} to give root rights to the ClamAV-daemon service.
48
49 {{figure image="en_tcp_test.png"}}
50 With the help of {{smallcaps}}netstat{{/smallcaps}} the TCP socket of the ClamAV-daemon service can be examined.

52
53 In order for this plugin to address the ClamAV-daemon service, the service has to be listening in the right place - in this case at {{smallcaps}}127.0.0.1:3310{{/smallcaps}}. This can be checked by the following command in the terminal:
54
55 {{code language="shell"}}
56 sudo netstat -anp | grep -E "(clam)"
