If an update script is called from cron the $PATH does not include /usr/local/bin and the download doesn't work. I have only checked with f-prot, maybe other scripts that use wget are affected, too. >How-To-Repeat: - install f-prot: www.f-prot.com - add "Virus Scanners = f-prot" to MailScanner.conf - add "0 * * * * /usr/local/libexec/MailScanner/update_virus_scanners.cron" to root's crontab >Fix: Add "PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/bin"" to all scripts in /usr/local/libexec/MailScanner that use binaries from the ports, like wget. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
