DESCRIPTION
dbupdate is a shell script for updating F-Secure Anti-Virus
Virus Definition Databases. It can update databases down-
loaded by F-Secure Automatic Update Agent (a fully auto-
matic background process) or databases transferred to the
host by other means (such as ftp). Before databases are
updated, dbupdate performs the necessary validation for
databases to prevent any corrupted or tampered databases
to be taken into use.
Show the short help of command line
options and exit.
Do not download databases synchro-
nously but update databases previously
downloaded by F-Secure Automatic
Update Agent. Used for fully automatic
database updates.
Do not update databases downloaded
by F-Secure Automatic Update Agent,
update from the specified directory
instead.
