I also have a compitent Linux person who has a similar set up who's experienced the same issue. "We are pleased to send you your free license key file with the serialnumber #XXXXXXXXXX as attachment. This license allows you to use AntiVir for Linux and FreeBSD inclusive the two-monthly updates (FUSE 6) from 01.01.2000 up to 31.05.2005 (version 06.00.00 up to version 06.31.99) as a full functional product. Please copy the attached file HBEDV.KEY into your AntiVir directory." Upon running (via cron or by hand) "/usr/local/sbin/antivirupdater -q" I get the following messages back (via e-mail), I'm guessing they changed versions which exclude the personal licenses.: "Machine: mail.solo.net Date: 24 May 2004 Time: 15:37:20 AntiVir has an update problem. A newer version of the following file(s) is available, however your license will not work correctly with the new version. You probably need to renew your license. --> /usr/local/AntiVir/antivir --> /usr/local/AntiVir/antivir.vdf" AND "Machine: mail.solo.net Date: 24 May 2004 Time: 15:37:22 AntiVir FAILED to update itself. The automatic update failed. Please look at the above messages. This may have occurred due to high network traffic for our update servers. Please try the update again later. If you continue to receive these errors, there may be a real problem. Does the machine have internet access? Is there enough disk space available? Is the software correctly configured (proxy)? There may be information in the log files to help determine the problem. AntiVir has NOT been updated."
