New widget for havp
-
Matrix200,
Here's a screenshot of my Dashboard:

Matrix200…
Just another suggestion/"wishlist": Is there any way to incorporate the dates of virus definitions into the widget? How about a button to update the definitions so users don't have to do it manually through the package itself? I'm not a programmer so I don't know if these suggestions are feasible.
Anyway...I do like the widget and appreciate the time and effort you've put into it.

Roodawakening,
Ok to answer your questions :
1. I am not sure adding datetime is such a good idea since as you can see I am very much constrained in width of the line that I can use.
We are looking into ways to make the widget more usable though and hopefully will come up with something soon.2. I am not sure what you mean with your second suggestion.
The updates are done automatically through the havp configuration so there is no need to do that manually.
Widget's job is to display virus alerts similarly to what snort widget does so I am not sure what is that you expect. -

| Date
Virus | URL |That should give it plenty of room to wrap the URL as needed.
Or alternately:| Date | Virus
URL |That way you could dedicate more width to column #2.
Edit: The tables apparently are white-on-white, not sure why, I'll look into it. Just highlight the text and you'll see what I originally put.

Jim-p, thanks for the suggestion.
I actually like the second one (that is date and then virus/url on the second column).
I also think this could be great idea for Snort widget too. -
Ok I have prepared the new version that looks like that :
Let me know if this is more useful.

Excellent. I find it more useful because now I know when a particular alert was received. I often due EICAR test files to make sure HAVP is working correctly (because, fortunately, I have no true virus files to flag) and it's nice to know on what date (and time) my test was successful.
How do I download the new version?
Thanks…

I'll put it in the Dashboard package and update it in the next few days, then just update the Dashboard when you see a new version.
-
Ok just to let everybody know the new version with the new look has been released.
Thanks to Jim-P as always :)
Please use this thread to report any issues with it. -
For whatever reason, the times and dates never change. I attempt to download EICAR test viruses, HAVP blocks them, but only those from two weeks ago show up.

Hmm, this probably means that logging has been turned off so nothing new gets added to the log.
Can you make sure the havp logging is on in the UI? -

Can you make sure the havp logging is on in the UI?I thought that was the problem, too, but look…

From my experience if both syslog and logfile are checked only syslog works.
Can you try disabling syslog and try again? -
That fixed it but I had to disable Syslog in both the 'HTTP Proxy' and 'Settings' tabs found under Services–>Antivirus
Anyways…thanks for your work.

Yeah, this is a bug in havp which dvserg should fix.
-
Ok I found a bug in the widget that would cause sorting by date to mess up.
This happens if you have widget open for a while but there are no updates.
There is a fix that will be released when the next dashboard version is out.
My apologies
