AW: Monitoring clamav signature updates

[Tommy Abrahamsson]

Thank you, but maybe I wasn't clear enough. Sending emails is not a
problem, Nagios does this very well. I'm interested in seeing the status
of a clamav daemon - whether it's updated or not - with the latest virus
signatures. The 2 mentioned commands, can get the values, but how to
integrate with Nagios?
Thanks.
Best regards
