Manually Update the Kaspersky Anti-Virus’s signature

1. On Desktop, extract av-i386-cumul.zip to a folder. In this example, I extract all files to /root/Desktop/Updates/.
Extract the signature's file
2. Back to Webmin, click on KeepUp2Date in Other -> KAV 5.7 for UNIX WS.
Configure update on Webmin
3. On KeepUp2Date menu, browse to misc settings. Check ‘Use update server url’ and ‘Use update server url only’ and change ‘Update server url’ to the folder where you have extracted the signature files. In this example, it is ‘/root/Desktop/Updates/’. And click Save.
Note: The ‘Update server url’ path must be follow with ‘/’.
Configure update path
4. Open Terminal and type the command below to update the signature.
/opt/kaspersky/kav4ws/bin/kav4ws-keepup2date
Run keepup2date to update the signature
5. Waiting until the update is finished, you’ll see some error message because Kaspersky Anti-Virus hasn’t started yet.
The update is running
6. Now the signature is up-to-date. Browse to Key Info on Webmin again, the license info has been shown correctly.
Check license again to see if it shows correctly
