AVG Linux Email Server / User Manual

Note: The process of inserting a kernel module may vary according to the

particular Linux distribution. Refer to your distribution documentation to

resolve possible problems. Also, there can be some differences according to

various versions of DAZUKO. Refer to the detailed DAZUKO documentation at

http://www.dazuko.org.

Create the device node for DAZUKO. This can be done executing the command

(supposing the device major number is 254 for example reasons)

# mknod -m 600 /dev/dazuko c 254 0

# chown root:root /dev/dazuko

as the root.

Also, you have to copy the module (the

dazuko.o or dazuko.ko file) to the

/lib/modules/src/kernel/char directory.

Create a link to module by adding the line

alias char-major-254 dazuko

to the /etc/modules.conf file.

Insert the module as the root by executing the command

# /sbin/insmod/ dazuko.o or #/sbin/insmod dazuko.ko

for Linux 2.2-2.4 or Linux 2.6 kernels respectively.

To check if the module has been loaded use the

$ cat /proc/modules or $ lsmod | grep dazuko

command. If you see 'dazuko' string along with its device major number

(usually 254) in the list of modules, it is successfully installed and inserted.

Note: If you get any warnings or error messages during the above described

process, something may be wrong with your kernel source code or

configuration. Please refer to the DAZUKO FAQ page at

http://www.dazuko.org for detailed information on what may have happened,

and how to fix the problem.

Once the DAZUKO module is installed and inserted, the AVG for Linux E-mail

Server daemons responsible for the on-access scanning will be fully

functional. You need to make sure the daemons are running and restart them

if they have been stopped (refer to the following paragraph to see how to do

this).
