Hi,

In one of my vserver-guests (gentoo) I installed f-prot, which
I want to use for mail scanning. Problem is, I can not update
virus signatures. Whenever I try it (/opt/f-prot/fpudate),
I always get this error:

---------------------------------------------

In console I can see update counter, and this problem happens
always exactly at 43% (~50 seconds from beginning).

Interesting, I installed f-prot in vserver-host (also gentoo),
and it works there! So I think this problem must be somehow
related to vserver-guest (probably configuration). So what could
be reason for this problem? I think, f-prot downloads its updates
using ftp or http connection. Is there some vserver config-option
I must activate if I want f-prot allow to update?
