I was trying to configure && make 'clamav-0.81' when it complained about this: configure: error: The installed zlib version may contain a security bug. Please upgrade to 1.2.2 or later: http://www.zlib.net. You can omit this check with --disable-zlib-vcheck but DO NOT REPORT any stablility issues then! I went to zlib.net, downloaded 1.2.2, did './configure && make install clean' Is that all I need to do? This is my first "security warning" so I want to make sure I'm not missing something obvious. Is there a good "What newbies need to know about FreeBSD security" out there? TjL
