Questions on McAfee for Linux

Running McAfee on RedHat Linux 5/6, and I need to start to update their .dat files.

If I run uvscan --version, I'm getting v 6.0.0.309

However, how do I know what time/date stamp the .dat file is.

Also once I get updated .dat files, where do I install them. I've noticed that McAfee has some basic info on their site that wants to stop a daemon called nails under /etc/init.d, however I show /etc/init.d/cam.

Outdated McAfee DATs on Red Hat Linux Machines

JockVSJock

I've updated my .dat files on my Linux servers.

You can run the following command to confirm the date/time stamp of the .dat file

uvscan --help

Under Red Hat Linux 5.x/6.x you can also look under /usr/local/uvscan and see where the .dat files live.
