Description

smeserver-dansguardian-stats provides a web statistics interface to the results of the content filtering provided by Dansguardian. Its a prerequisite that dansguardian and the smeserver-dansguardian contribs have been installed.

Installation

wget http://sme.swerts-knudsen.com/downloads/Dansguardian-stats/smeserver-dansguardian-stats-1.0.0-1.noarch.rpm
yum  --enablerepo=smecontribs localinstall smeserver-dansguardian-stats-1.0.0-1.noarch.rpm

De-installation or de-activation

You can simply remove the package again with the usual rpm command.

rpm –e smeserver-dansguardian-stats-1.0.0-1

or disable the functionality with (default: yes):

/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop dansguardian webstats no

Configuration

When installed, the web interface is is accessible form:

http://your.domain.com/dansguardian

This dansguardian statistics web page can, by default, only be seen from the local network (IP ranges defined in Local Network in the server-manager) but if you want this to be accessible from remote networks (public access) this can be done via (default: yes):

/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop dansguardian LocalOnly <no|yes>
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd-e-smith restart

Statistics

An additional feature of the Dansguardian statistics is to send the collected statistics to a central statistics central at http://central.swerts-knudsen.dk. The gathering of data is not stressful for the server and the data sent is not sensitive (well in my opinion) and consists of:

• Amount of pages scanned
• Top 10 names of virus/malware infected content (names from ClamAV)
• Top 10 names of Blocked domains and their Dansguardian categories (Proxies, Pornography, etc.)
• The version of SME server used (7.x)
• Public IP address of server (used to plot in Google Maps on central.swerts-knudsen.com)

Should you want to disable this functionality then this can obviously be done:

/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop dansguardian statsclient <disabled|enabled>

Unofficial ClamAV signatures

I would also recommend to install the script that downloads all the unofficial ClamAV signatures as these detects not only virus but equally importantly various kinds of malware and spam.

Follow the guide on http://wiki.contribs.org/Email#Anti_Virus to do that.
