Domino/Traveler 14.5.1 shipped today - the container image is updated - ClamAV is added to Domino

Domino & Traveler 14.5.1 are now the default for the container build. But the menu behind "D" can be still used to switch the major version.
All the changes always run thru an automation test. But you never know what might break.
In this case it was a Traveler tar with a different name. Because it is compressed it needs the tar.gz extension.
Took me a moment to find it today. But I wrote a work-around and the file name will be updated soon.
Updating Domino servers to 14.5.1 is just a container build away -- if you run containers.
I have updated my production servers and a couple of lab servers.
But an update isn't as complicated as it was in earlier days also on other platforms.
There is no big version change from 14.5 to 14.5.1 for Java versions and Libs.
Everything would be expected to work unchanged and there are enhancements I am waiting for.
ClamAV
One addition in Domino 14.5.1 is the mail flow scan with ClamAV instead of ICAP.
This brings free anti-virus to any Domino environment and is something you might want to look into for server to server scans.
The scan is intelligent and works with a trusted JWT among servers which contain the scanner type and pattern along with an attachment hash. Actually hash of hashes, which avoids re-scan of the whole message inside a domain.

Hi,
so how is ClamAV implemented/to implement in Domino 14.5.1 on Windows on-prem (no container).
Do I have to install separate ClamAV (MSI installer) locally on each windows server I'm running Domino on? Or is ist completely integrated? Did not find anything in detail for this topic.
Thanks.

Hi Norbert,
ClamAV uses clamd which can be on the same or a different machine.
Clamd is also available on Windows if you really want it to be on Windows.
But it could be also a Linux machine running Clamd native or in a container.
I would personally prefer a loopback connection. But CScan supports TLS.
Clamd itself does not support TLS but you can add any kind of secure proxy or load-balancer in front of it. Like NGINX.
I wrote up NGINX configurations and blogged about it earlier.
