I like the idea of running virex from the command line, but I cannot locate a man file for it. any pointers?


I don't know if I can decipher all of the usage:

    /usr/local/vscanx/vscanx /var -r -v --summary -c --exclude /usr/local/vscanx/excludefd is what i use.

    /usr/local/vscanx/vscanx is the command
    / is where i am starting my scan from
    -r -v --summary means scans directories beneath the root directory / and be verbose and i want a summary at the end
    -c means clean the infected files
    --exclude /usr/local/vscanx/excludefd is any files you want to exclude

    if you want to only scan the var folder and not the folders beneath it and wanted to scan every single file in the var folder you would use /usr/local/vscanx/vscanx /var -v --summary -c

    Hi !

    There should be a PDF manual inside of the "Virex" folder (located in your Applications folder) : this file contains a more user-friendly explanation of how vscanx works from the command line.
