    [quote:fd275f043f=”MacTroll”]that is an “l” as in a lowercase “L” for log not a 1.

    You need to fix that on the how-to page — you’ve got it on the page as the number 1 and not a lowercase L. Copy-n-paste doesn’t work from the page as it currently stands. (I just found that out myself a minute ago, which is kinda how I ended up here right now.)

    On a related note, I was having an error downloading the new virus updates using freshclam until i changed the owner/group on the clamav directory as follows: [b:fd275f043f]chown clamav.clamav /usr/local/share/clamav/[/b:fd275f043f]. I don’t think I missed this step in the instructions, so you might want to look at this.

    Otherwise, so far so good! 🙂
