[vps-mail] ClamAV Warning

["John Oligario" <joligario@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello again all,

This is what I have in my cron:

## run freshclam twice daily
0 2,8,14,20 * * * root /usr/local/bin/freshclam --quiet -l
/var/log/clam-update.log --daemon-notify=/usr/local/etc/clamav.conf

I just double checked my /usr/log/clamav/clamav/freshclam.log and have been
receiving the following there:

ClamAV update process started at --- shows time and date
ERROR: Can't connect to port 80 of host database.clamav.net (209.8.40.140)
ERROR: Connection with database.clamav.net (IP: 209.8.40.140) failed.
Trying again... 
ClamAV update process started at --- shows time and date
ERROR: Can't connect to port 80 of host database.clamav.net (128.64.99.170)
ERROR: Connection with database.clamav.net (IP: 129.64.99.170) failed.
Giving up...

Those of you who do use the freshclam to update automatically may wish to
check your log files.  I thought I was being protected automatically, yet
this is failing. 

Using the same command from cron manually there is no problem connecting.
