maldet email




Posted by AlphaDev, 08-11-2015, 08:55 PM
hi i installed LMD (maldet) n my VPS server - centos 6. I already configured /usr/local/maldetect/conf.maldet and set email alert as ="1" and also configured my email address.. but im not receiving any scan reports via email. If uninfected or if undetected i will not be getting any mails? Can someone confirm this please? I already checked my exim mail log and couldnt see any mail generated. maldet is there under daily cron directory. thanks

You'll only receive an email if it finds something.

sam20e You will receive emails only if malicious files are detected OR if they are quarantined. If maldet does not detects anything no email will be sent.

Hi, It does not send out notification if no hits are found. It is its default behavior. if you want to have it send a report everytime, you can create a script to do this, but the default installation will not do this.
