Hallo, the problem isn't in avast, but in dazuko, which is not maintained anymore, and you must use some mediate layer to get it work on latest kernels.
Small how-to is here:
notes and hints for quick installation:
----------------------------------------------------
1) install the AV engine and database (libavastengine* package):
rpm -i libavastengine-4.7.6-1.i586.rpm
(might need to add perl-URI or perl-libwww-perl to satisfy all dependences, or use --nodeps, they serve for online updating only)
2) install the scanning daemon (avast4server* package):
rpm -i avast4server-3.2.0_rc-1.i586.rpm
(look at /etc/avastd.conf, our default settings will need ~512MB machine, otherwise lower the daemoncounts or disable the "local" section)
(make sure that licensefile= points to your License.dat file, at least for the "guard" section)
(you can test whether it works using: avastlite -a /var/run/avastguard/guardscanner.sock <some_path>)
3) install the on-access avastguard client (avast4guard* package):
rpm -i avast4guard-3.2.0_rc-1.i586.rpm
(INCLUDEPATH in the avastguard.conf determines the guarded sub-tree in your filesystem)
(on 2.6 kernels, for LSM/RedirFS, the ON_CLOSE Dazuko option isn't available, thus, keep it set to "no" in the avastguard.conf)
Both avastd from 2) and avastguard from 3) are daemons, and you can start/stop them via /etc/init.d/avastd or /etc/init.d/avastguard scripts.
notes for compiling redirfs and dazuko (for SuSE11):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
- unpack the redirfs tarball, and do as root:
cd redirfs-0.8
make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd` modules
make -C /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build M=`pwd` modules_install
- unpack the dazuko tarball, and do as root:
cd dazuko-2.3.7
cp <absolute_path_to_the_redirfs-0.8_directory>/Module.symvers .
./configure --redirfsdir=<absolute_path_to_the_redirfs-0.8_directory>
make install
- the modules can be loaded as:
modprobe --allow-unsupported redirfs
modprobe --allow-unsupported dazuko
regards,
pc
