Ann, Thanks, but your suggestions didn't do it for me... SuSE is about to update this package, according to a recent security announcement, so I'll wait and see what happens in the next few days. I'll post my results on this thread. Best regards, Mark On Monday, November 15, 2004 03:04 pm, Ann Hopkins wrote:
I wrote this down from the last time I had this problem. If you are using amavis, the problem is the clamav.conf file.
CLAMAV.CONF FILE
[Here is where I messed up initially the following has to be commented out to create a shared socket with amavisd - these are also out of order in the file but are related]
Code:
# This option allows you to save the process identifier of the listening # daemon (main thread). # PidFile /var/lib/clamav/clamd.pid ... # TCP port address. # TCPSocket 3310 ...
[This is the shared socket data which must match and be writable by amavisd (vscan.vscan). /var/lib/clamav]
Code:
# Path to the local socket. The daemon doesn't change the mode of the # created file (portability reasons). You may want to create it in a directory # which is only accessible for a user running daemon. LocalSocket /var/lib/clamav/clamd-socket ...
